Hidden Beauty

The Chinese bamboo is a phenomenal tree, it's growth process tells an important story of faith, patience and miracle.
For many years the bamboo grows beneath the earth surface. In the first year of planting, there's no visible sign that a tree was planted.  Notwithstanding, the farmer caters for the land.

In the second year, no visible sign as the land maintains it's vacant look. The third and fourth year tells same story, yet, the farmer continues watering and weeding.

In the fifth year,  the bamboo shoots out from the soil. The next six weeks, sees it grow to an amazing height of eighty feet. The dormancy of four years, ends with the miracle of exponential growth.

Like a bamboo, you may not have answers to years of seemingly fruitless labour. There's absolutely nothing to boast of in marriage, career etc. It seems a waste to follow God's direction in life.

Will you stop hoping in His promises? Will you keeping waiting? If the farmer had listened to those who didn't understand the process of the bamboo. He would have aborted his miracle. A wait on God never ends in vain.

You may need to hold on for another day, but no matter how difficult, please stay steadfast. If it seems God is coming too late it means He's coming in a big way. Your day of joy will be a delight, if you wait patiently.

Don't give up just yet, stay unshaking in faith, continue in prayers and never cease to be thankful. It will be a wow, a wonder,  an amazement. Your hidden miracles approaches.

Psalms 119:116
Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope.
