Building A Better Life

“Yet when planted, it grows and becomes the largest of all garden plants, with such big branches that the birds can perch in its shade.” – Mark 4:32 Building a better life for yourself takes time, so be patient. Take bamboo for instance. There’s a type of bamboo that takes five years to germinate. As the small bulbs germinate, the roots grow underground in every direction. For five years, nothing can be seen while the bamboo roots grow deep and spread wide. Then, in a matter of six weeks, the bamboo suddenly grows ninety feet tall! This is after spending five years growing roots! Life is like this. Life is hard, so you build, build, build. As long as you’re building, you’re good! You continue on this path and eventually enjoy over-the-top movement. You kept building and now you can reap the rewards!  Growing and building do not happen overnight.
