Family trees also go through seasons of change. Each time there is a new marriage a new branch is formed. When that family is blessed with a baby, a brand new leave is added to that branch. When a member of the family dies another leave falls from the tree but it is returned to earth. Sometimes when that family branch has lost all of its leaves the branch falls off changing the family composition. But through all of the changes, each branch depends on the roots to nourish its growth. With growth, there will come a time when you will have to be replanted so that you can have your roots to build a solid groundwork for future generations to grow upon. Everything has a cycle and life is a process that takes each of us through different seasons. We don’t always understand the reason for the storms and the changes that often take place. But in the end when you are standing tall, you realize you were stronger than you thought and you did not fall. There’s a reason you were planted where you are. GOD knew where you could grow and where the beauty of your blossom could show.
