Wherever you find yourself, I would encourage to bloom where you are planted.
Yes, you may not like your circumstances, and you may wish things were different, but God has you planted where you are for a purpose. You are His life where death seems prevalent, His light where darkness tries to interfere, and His love where fear tries to keep you down. So, bloom where He has planted you, and look to the Son for everything you need, as He works His life in and through you, for His glory.
The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom; it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy. (Isaiah 35: 1-2a)
Prayer:
Lord Jesus,
May your joy bloom within me wherever I am planted. You are my joy whenever I need strength, my hope whenever I feel disappointed, and my peace whenever I feel insecure. So, I will bloom and grow for you wherever I am planted, for it will be my joy to shine for you. Amen.
