Encouragement
Have you ever had one of those chance encounters that when it happens, you just have to tell the world?
I ran into a young lady in the restroom that I never met before who began to tell me Her dissatisfaction with Her job.
As she began to share the negative aspects; I began to share the positives of the big picture.
Well, she ended our conversation by saying, I never thought of that. I guess you take certain things for granted.
I told her before getting on the elevator to go about my day.
"Girl, bloom where you are planted until it's time for you to be repotted"!
A dead plant doesn't do anybody any good!!!
I believe that is an encouragement for us today while you may be in transition for that better house, better job, and better life.
Bloom while you are planted - until it's time for you to be repotted.
This is not an every now and then type of thing!
This is not a when you feel like it type of things.
Just bloom - because that's what flowers do!
God Bless!

Cassandra... Another excellent piece! I've always loved that expression about blooming where you are planted. Just do it... don't wait for the perfect circumstances for they will never come and then you will have lost your chance to shine for the Lord! It reminds of the saying that we have a choice each day - we can either choose to embrace the day or hide from it. There are many ways to say that, but it's the same idea as blooming where you are at this moment. Thank you, Cassandra for another wonderful 'life lesson'...we're listening! God bless, Peggy
Oh how I wish you would have continued writing this piece! You blessed my soul, sometimes we pray to God asking for His help, and He knows exactly where to send us to speak to us, thank you, thank you, and thank you again, I really need to bloom where I'm planted, at home, at the office, at church, thank you for blessing my soul, and I say again, oh how I wish you would have continued writitng that piece, you had so much to say in those words you stirred something in my spirit and I am leaping at the revelation, thank you for your beautiful writing and thank you for being a blessing to us and allowing the Holy Spirit to use you to speak to us, what a blessing you are. To God be the Glory for the things He has done in Jesus Name!
