A seed doesn't end with being a tree.

When you gained a victory, do not dwell on it for too long--otherwise, you may be trapped with how good you WERE and never discover how great you can be. Your life doesn't end with only one success, or even several. You will have plenty of victories, but do not stop there. Today I am a seed--but one day, I will be a tree that will produce fruit, which in turn will carry many seeds...so while I might see myself as a seed...God has created IN ME, a mighty forest!

It is my CHOICE to have a forest mentality regarding my life. Although I feel buried, I know I'm actually being planted. I am experiencing difficult and painful growing pains. Growth in my spirituality and in my life. I am learning to be disciplined and killing off my old thinking.

At first I didn't understand why I am being attacked so heavily...but now that I see the potential God has put in me. (James 1:1-18 NIV)



GROW with every appropriate season...do not deny discipline. Look at yourself the way God sees you. You may be the mother or father of great forests...please do not give up on you. God finished you before you were born. He's seen your end, but it comes with checkpoints. Reach all of your victories, but pass them quickly. Keep going.

Do not quit. Remember, even seeds have to break when growth is happening. -C
