It is Time to Bloom

It is Time to Bloom

Ecclesiastes 3:11 “He has made everything beautiful in its time.”

Bloom where your planted. But what happens when you look around and you’re the last one? You’ve watched others around you get what you’ve so desperately prayed for. God is saying just hang on. There is beauty for your ashes. Even if it takes you a little longer to bloom. Even if you may be the last one. He has not forgotten you.

I have felt God impress to me to just “trust.” Even in the wait or should I say especially in the wait…TRUST. The last several months have been hard. Like me, you may not want to be in the season that you’re in. Maybe you thought God would change your situation by now? Well I get it! But as I walked into my yard the other day I saw this single magnolia bloom left. I was enthralled with its beauty. It stood out even more to me because it was the last one left. In that moment God encouraged me that I was like that last bloom left.

Despite being “late” in its blooming it was all the more beautiful. I took notice and it was easily found. No longer was it hidden amongst the rest. When the time has come God will position you to be found. When you bloom everything around you will present you on display. No delays. No distractions. God will open the doors. Floodgates will open up and an outpouring will flow forth. All the other flowers had blown away, yet this one endured. It reminded me of my circumstances and how we tend to try to rush things. I may feel like things may be delayed, but God is saying “NO!” They are right on time. All things are made perfect in HIS timing. Emphasis on His timing and not mine.

This beautiful bloom reminded me that in Gods perfect time everything prayed for will come to pass. You will bloom when the time has come. Not too early. Not too late. Everything will fall into place. Gods timing is always perfect. Be encouraged that though things may not be happening as quickly as you’d like they are still happening!

Bloom where you’re planted and expect to see God move in BIG ways. Don’t let the outside forces around you dictate if it’s your time or not. Don’t let the enemy whisper lies that you’re too late or God has forgotten you. Seek God in all you do and He will make a way for you to Bloom. Trust that every promise He has placed on your heart will come to pass.

Remember You are Fearfully Made ❀

  1. Yes … there’s a few of us “late bloomers” still around!
    And as far as God’s timing is concerned:
    “He’s got it timed to the last wave of the brakeman’s hand on the last train out of town!” πŸ™‚
    Nicely written!
