An Expert in desert Planting

Wikipedia defines a desert as a barren area of landscape where little precipitation occurs.

Consequently, living conditions are hostile for plant and animal life. The lack of vegetation exposes the unprotected surface of the ground to denudation. About one-third of the land surface of the Earth is arid or semi-arid.

According to scripture, the desert is in a salt land where no one lives.

Denudation is soil erosion. When the part of the soil full of nutrients and elements that can aid plants to grow is swept off .

Arid means lack of rain. A dry land.

You know the desert land may not be a land to serve the purpose of food and nutrition. And you can attest that it is no place for planting and Growth.

Why in the name of God will Isaiah 41:19 say; I will make trees grow in the desert — cedars, acacia, myrtle, and olive trees. I will put pine, fir, and cypress trees growing together in the desert?

An expert is; ‘having or involving a great deal of knowledge or skill in a particular area’. This is as an adjective and not a noun according to Oxford dictionary.

God as an Expert does not only have knowledge and skill in tree planting in the desert, he sustains and grows those trees beautifully. An Expert in doing the Impossibles.

A desert land in the Mediterranean…

I have seen two deserts, all in the Middle East. One in SouthWest Asia and the other in East Asia. Aside from the beauty of the landscape, which is full of sand, the temperature is usually hot, and the direction of wind that blows make it a belligerent environment to live in. Not only for plants but humans as well.

Yet, we have a Father who specializes in planting tress and plants in a desert land. Extra ordinary God.

The impulse of this, he makes seemingly impossible things possible. A miracle working God. One who makes worse situations Great. He specializes in making the ugly beautiful.

I don’t know what troubles you have and challenges you seem to be facing. Here to encourage you to Trust in a Father who calms storms and makes all things beautiful.

He is bigger than our troubles.

If it seems impossible, consider him as the person who plants trees in the desert to come through. Won’t he fix yours? ๐Ÿœ

Exodus 5:3 And they said, The God of the Hebrews hath met with us: let us go, we pray thee, three days’ journey into the desert, and sacrifice unto the LORD our God. Your desert may be your place of sacrifice. And after every sacrifice and pain is Victory.๐Ÿ’ฅ

Hey you, are you muddling about life issues?

How about you mull over this word to give you comfort…Isaiah 41:10; “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

This is your friendly reminder that, we have a friend who specializes in making Impossible situations Possible!๐Ÿ‘Œ

Whatever the experience may be, remember he Got You.๐Ÿค—โค๏ธ

What we Really mean when we say He Turns Evil for our good…

The fundamentals and assurance of loving God for me is, we are confident that, he is faithful, kind, just, loyal and a loving father. He is that one person who will love you beyond flaws and sort you out beyond measure.

I did a study of my life with hurdles and challenges encountered right from childhood and mine!

No one will be able to convince me that what is actually evil is not so evil after all in the long term.

Evil is synonymous to Good in my dictionary.

It only depends on your perspective and how you handle it. I won’t lie about the pain in enduring evil ๐Ÿ’” Nonetheless, that pain is worth the good at the end.

The good book in Genesis talks about how evil will be meant for us, but it will automatically be turned to good in the long round. Genesis 50:20

The advantage of the supposed evil is strength, courage and resilience we build well disguised.

This may not be outlook for most of us. Until we see the good, the worry and pain in evil may dorminate our lives.

What I have to say to you; “do not fret and fear” when evil and challenges come your way.

If you are reading this write-up with my header, trying to assimilate it for the first time, be assured every negative thing that happens in your life has a positive ripple effect. At the end, it ends well.

You should Never feel defeated in a situation or circumstance that seems to have overshadowed you and clouded your thoughts, especially when your heart and intentions are right.

We are more than Conquerors through Christ Jesus.

Romans 8:37. King James Version … Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

I have countless stories and instances of God turning evil for my good.

Instances in my Senior secondary education and what happened after my documents from Junior High School were misplaced in the GES system, to challenges at the beginning of tertiary and even at my MBA level, yet they all ended in my Favour. These are stories for another day by the way.๐Ÿ˜…

As an adult, how mean situations initiated by others ended as a good turn to me. I have lost count of the goodness of God and the Great lessons that made me a better person there after.

So, while you read now, go back in thought and recall past experiences.

Even the recent that was unpleasant…

How did it end after everything?

Perhaps you haven’t made time to think of the good in a situation.

But think about it, what did that pain, hurt and heartbreak bring or make you finally? The betrayal and backbiting?

Strength, courage, patience, love, Grit and Everything Niceโค๏ธ

The pain and evil are always worth it, I promise you.

How do you handle dark moments and seasons?

For me, first, because I have a perspective of good in every dark/bad situation, the process with God confirms a beautiful end for me.

Total dependency on God, being realistic about situations, knowing root cause and finding solution with solace, wisdom and strength from the big one up who knows the end from the beginning. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’ฅ

Here to poke your thought and emotions on fact that, what is always meant for evil will be turned to your good.๐Ÿ‘

Thanks for Reading and please share how this Encouraged You.๐Ÿ’œ

The Beauty of Christmas๐ŸŒฒ

Being blessed to see decades of Christmas celebrations as an annual event,I cannot help but see the family ties,bonds & tradition in homes and on the grams.

From a Christian perspective and a Bible believing angle,the opportunity to witness a day like 25th December as the birthday of Jesus Christ,the son of our Father Above is great and humbling to see.

There are several events in a calendar year from the Bible and the world that comes with making merry & festivities, Christmas Tops for me.

Christmas for me as a young girl growing in a community in Ghana came with array of joy, good food, Christmas carols, music, visit to loved ones, the cakes & activities esp. church services.Whoop!!!…,the Air.The Breeze & Weather.

The younger me loved Christmas dishes & took delight in how different & delectable Fried rice taste.The savory aroma.I still believe as an adult Christmas meals taste different.๏˜๏ฅฐ A moment to have assorted drinks esp. fizzy.Even drinking them in quantities & bottles.

Walking within walls and corridors of my community,the dishes of my neighbor’s also smelled different & felt special sensing.Lol The carols played in homes when you walk pass a window…Chills!

I Loved how the Christmas weather was. The Breeze was different,extra ordinary & amazing.I always loved it. Leaves on trees in & infront of homes fell pretty fast in their numbers on the ground every second.

Not forgetting the Christmas parties, dancing to tunes from Daddy Lumba like: “Fine boy,..”You know that song? Giggles!

To going for church services in new clothes with the family,eating more yogurt by getting parents to buy from yogurt sellers at church premises and coming home to sumptuous meals like “Christmas fried rice”,that one taste different, drinks with family & loved ones.

As an adult, the beauty of Christmas for me is reminiscing all these moments that made Christmas as special as a birthday celebration each day & resting.

Watching family photoshoots & portraits online makes my heart glad as a confirmation that people appreciate family which is beautiful.๐ŸŒŸ

Finally, to enjoying the food & the weather I so loved, I now know as harmattan.๐Ÿท

‘There may be others who are probably celebrating or seeing a Christmas month without loved ones, trying hard to enjoy the season which is difficult to put up things or words together.Even lonely’.

May be it is a chance for you and I to adopt Gratitude.For life around the clock or find that one spot which makes you happy to which you are grateful for.

What is your highlight for the season & what makes Christmas beautiful for You?โœจ๏ธ

Compliment of the Season & Happy Holidays Family!๐ŸŽŠ

Remember,Tis a season of Love.Forgive,share,rest,recoup & plan.โค๏ธ
