The Blossoms of Your Valley

Friday, June 23, 2023

Song of Solomon 6:11 says, "I went down into the garden... to see the blossoms of the valley." Believers often tell you they're in a valley and they're unhappy about it. The valley is a low place. It can be hard times, times of sorrow, loss, weakness and not feeling God. But in Song of Solomon, it's not a sad thing, it's a beautiful thing. The valley can be a place of fruitfulness, one of the most fertile places, where the rain and waters flow. So in your life, the low times are often the most potentially fertile, the most potentially fruitful, and the most beautiful. Generally hard times produces the greatest change, repentance or decisions for God. Most believers came to the Lord in the valley. So why do we despise it, if so much more growth, repentance and joy will come from the valley? Don't despise your valley. Go down, see the blossoms, the vine and the pomegranate. Look for the good fruit God wants to bring forth. In every hard time, you will find what God has being waiting for you, blossoms of the valley.
