Dear Celebrated One,

Good things are taking root and rising up tall, like sturdy oaks. I have broken through the fallow ground of your heart to plant the seeds of unconditional and unwavering trust in Me. I have beeen doing major landscaping work in you that required a season of testing the soil of your heart.

The weeds have been pulled out by the roots. The brambles and briars that have previously choked out your growth, have been removed. Now, the fertile soil of your heart has germinated seeds of destiny. The root system is strong, as it is nurtured from this rich, nutrition-dense soil, and going deeper than you ever thought possible. New growth is rising out of you.

You have been keeping very close to Me and I have promised that when you do so, you will be like a tree planted by the streams of waters that never fails to produce, no matter what the season.

Jeremiah 17: 7-8 (AMP)
7 “Blessed [with spiritual security] is the man who believes and trusts in and relies on the Lord
And whose hope and confident expectation is the Lord.

8 “For he will be [nourished] like a tree planted by the waters,
That spreads out its roots by the river;
And will not fear the heat when it comes;
But its leaves will be green and moist.
And it will not be anxious and concerned in a year of drought
Nor stop bearing fruit.
