Grow Where You Are Planted

Grow Where You’re Planted

My daughter eyed the beautiful blossoms on this tree and yelled out “Mommy look at the pretty flowers”.

When I saw it, I couldn’t help but think “how sad such a beautiful tree stuck behind a drive-thru sign” then I heard the words “grow where you’re planted” whispered to me.

What an awesome illustration of that concept this flowering tree is. It is overshadowed by a large square box, and yet even in the shadow of another, it blooms.

Whatever your hardship, whatever your circumstances, you and I too can “grow where we’re planted”, actually we can do more than “grow” we can “blossom”.
