Do you look at the challenges, struggles, and hardships in your life and think it is unjust? Do you wonder how God will turn those things for your good?
God wants you to know that the hard and difficult things you have gone through, turn into fertilizer, to bring forth the great beauty that lives within you. Know that you are a rare rose, fragrant and beautiful, fueled by the difficult and hard things in your life, that become compost to accelerate your growth. Rejoice!
Consider it wholly joyful, my brethren, whenever you are enveloped in or encounter trials of any sort or fall into various temptations. Be assured and understand that the trial and proving of your faith bring out endurance and steadfastness and patience. (James 1:2-3 AMPC)

I take this to heart with my journey through the dark valley of depression. God will and is using my struggles as “compost” toward a greater harvest of eternal glory!
