Hello there! Hope you had a relaxing and fun weekend. Welcome back to my blog. Unlike other blogs, I'm not writing this with big stories and subheadings. It'll be just 2 minutes read and I hope it'll be helpful to you.
We all expect things to happen quickly. The dream that you had yesterday, the small desire you have for tomorrow, the lifestyle you wish to live, the progress that you want to make in your stream of study or work, the little change you want and many more. No matter how much effort you make, sometimes you get stuck and it doesn't happen suddenly. That's when the frustration gets ignited. Doubts take over your heart and every little effort you make feels ordinary.
When it doesn't happen suddenly, people start questioning your ability, humiliation reaches its peak, you get bored, you feel worthless and hopeless.
Before you give up on it, take a minute to look at the seed. The most important part of its life isn't about its time of growth with new leaves, bearing flowers and fruits. The most significant time is when seed buries itself in the soil. No one really sees it under the soil. Yet it buries itself and comes up with life to bear fruits.
You cannot expect a seed to bear fruits and flowers as soon as you sow it. It applies to your life as well. You are a seed in the eyes of God. He doesn't expect you to live your best as soon as he sends you to the earth.
God expects you to get into the soil and bury all the unwanted things, thoughts, habits from your life. Fight hard and come up with a new life. Go through different seasons, stand still and grow each day to finally bear the fruits, thus, becoming all you were created to be.
The significant part of your story is when you're under the soil. The way you kill the unnecessary things matter a lot. No one gets inside the soil to see the seed but new life begins from that point. When things doesn't happen quickly, when no one applauds your daily tasks, when no one sees the struggle you are facing under the soil, be calm, don't rush, that's exactly where your character is being built and you'll come up with new life.
Don't underestimate the season of the seed under the soil and so for your life. Stay consistent, do it despite difficulty. There's a season coming, that's the season of fruiting and your days of labor will surely be rewarded.
It's in the season of waiting, your character is being built rightly. Your courage and resilience gets built right in this season. Acceleration is necessary but it's the pause under the soil that takes you to new life.
Your days will be amazing. Your days of joy are not far. So don't give up, when it doesn't happen suddenly.
Remember, bury yourself to become the bun you meant to be. When it doesn't happen suddenly, focus on burying and building your character.
