"Once I began to recognize the shade that I was standing under, I was better able to realize the source of sunshine that I desperately needed. I simply needed to trust the Lord to soften my soil, breaking up the dirt clumps from so many years of compacting my emotions and allow Him to plant in my life whatever He needed form me to produce. I needed Him to be my source of sunshine and allow whatever pruning necessary to shape me into the women he created me to be. The Lord began cultivating into my life Truth, as He allowed me to recognize His hand in every season. Each season lending to the effectiveness of the next as the cycle is repeated and the harvest anticipated. Allowing Him access to the "fields" and freedom to plant His crop of choice has removed roots of bitterness resulting in a bounty of joy and contentment."
