“They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.”
Jeremiah 17:8
I see you. You’ve stayed strong and steadfast. Through thick and thin, you have not given up. You listened to my voice and obeyed even when you felt that it would slay you.
You plowed, planted and watered. You’ve watched and nurtured your harvest. I am pleased. Now look! It’s time for harvest!!
Get your vats ready for the harvests. Fill your hearts with gladness. Prepare for the feast.
For I am pouring out my blessing upon you and your household as a reward for your faithfulness.
I know there were times when it was not easy to follow Me. I never said it would be. But I have taken stock of the state of your heart. And I am well pleased with the remnant of childlike obedience I see there. The world sought to destroy your spirit, but you did not allow your candle to be snuffed out.
Open the doors to your home, I am filling it to overflowing. I love you my child.
