From the seed, a rose is a rose. Though it has to undergo a process, we do not get to see the beauty until much later, yet it is still a rose. As with us, having to go through a process due to all we currently have endured. Like jewels unfinished and dim, waiting to be nurtured and watered by the Word of God that we too may spring up out of that dry place, ready to flourish bring and full of illuminating beauty that comes from the inside. Standing straight, bold and ready for whatever God's divine purpose is for our life.
