A Rose Beyond the Road!

Where I Wasn't Looking, Grace Was Growing"? 🌸 

In 2022, I saw a vision during a time when I was searching for a job.

In that vision, I was planting a rose garden — watering the plants every day, checking with hope if even a single bud had appeared.

But day after day, no bud came.
Only the green stems and leaves stood before me, wet with care but still empty of flowers.

Still, I kept watering.
I kept waiting.
I kept looking.

Time passed.
My heart stayed steady, though at times it wondered.

And then, one day, in the vision, I simply turned my head to the right —
and there it was.

A wide road stretched out before me, and just beyond that road, stood a mountain.
At the foot of that mountain, there was a single rose plant —
not lush, not full, just one simple stick holding one wide, beautiful pink rose.

I crossed the road without hesitation and gently plucked the rose.
It had been growing all along — but not where I had been looking.

That is exactly how I received my job.

While I was trying in one direction — watering, waiting, and hoping —
God had already prepared my blessing elsewhere.

And when the time was right,
He simply turned my head,
opened a path,
and placed the gift in my hands —
all in a single day.

The one who writes in the quiet, marked with the signet of the King.

Let me be the pen. Lord, you be the writer!
