Yesterday as I was walking through a parking lot and saw a flower. It reminded me that we have to bloom where we have been planted. Understand I did not say sit dormant, run and hide or wilt away, I said bloom where you are planted!

“But blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in him. 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 17:7-8).
