How To Revive A Dying Plant
Don’t Give Up On Me
Don’t Give Up On Me
Earlier this year I almost gave up on my Bonsai Plant that I purchased last Fall. Instead, I decided to give it some TLC and time to adapt to its new surroundings. As I watched I felt inspired as though I heard a gentle whisper saying “Don’t Give Up On Me”. At that time I decided to catalog pictures at different stages of the process.
Have you ever wanted to just give up? I am sure we all have our moments. You may have experienced trial after trial weighing you down to the point of despair. Aging starting to creep up on you, experiencing changes to your body making it unfamiliar and confusing. Depleting the energy, strength, joy, passion, and determination from your heart and mind. When we find ourselves in this new place we tend to believe and accept the perception that time has run out for us to capture and accomplish our Desires and Dreams.
Sometimes in life, we go through circumstances that seem unbearable. Circumstances that cause us to question our faith and ourselves. Circumstances that push us down so far that we begin to wonder if we’ll ever Stand again. Oh But God, (saying that phrase alone causes revival) He wants you to be encouraged. The God that knows you better than you know yourself… The Creator of the Gift you call “Me”.
Don’t get comfortable or common with this outer state and current circumstances. It can get a bit frustrating but don’t give up on the Gift you call “Me”. It’s patiently waiting for you to rediscover the inner gem now full of wisdom, excitement, vision, and clarity. The Lord wants you to stop listening to the lies from the enemy. It’s not over, pray and seek His presences, there you will find instructions for a CClear Vision for this Season.
There is still life to live… Each day that we have a heartbeat and the breath of Life is a Day to LIVE and not merely exist. God hasn’t given up on the Gift you call “Me” so don’t you dare give up. Your roots are alive and with the proper attention, nourishment, and care there will be new growth breaking through ready to thrive. So whatever you do, say to yourself do not give up on “Me” and behold the transformation.
