I wanted to quit my life. "Can you give me one good rea

One day I decided to quit...I quit my job, my
relationship, my spirituality... I wanted to quit my
life. I went to the woods to have one last talk with
God.

"God", I said. "Can you give me one good reason not to
quit?"

His answer surprised me... "Look around", He said. "Do
you see the fern and the bamboo?"

"Yes", I replied.

"When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took
very good care of them. I gave them light. I gave them
water. The fern quickly grew from the earth. Its
brilliant green covered the floor. Yet nothing came
from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the
bamboo. In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant
and plentiful. And again, nothing came from the bamboo
seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo." He said.

"In year three there was still nothing from the bamboo
seed. But I would not quit. In year four, again, there
was nothing from the bamboo see. I would not quit." He
said.

"Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the
earth. Compared to the fern it was seemingly small and
insignificant... But just 6 months later the bamboo
rose to over 100 feet tall. It had spent the five
years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and
gave it what it needed to survive. I would not give
any of my creations a challenge it could not handle."


He said to me. "Did you know, my child, that all this
time you have been struggling, you have actually been
growing roots?"

"I would not quit on the bamboo. I will never quit on
you."

"Don't compare yourself to others." He said. "The
bamboo had a different purpose than the fern.

Yet they both make the forest beautiful."

"Your time will come", God said to me. "You will rise
high"

"How high should I rise?" I asked.

"How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked in return.
"As high as it can?" I questioned

"Yes." He said, "Give me glory by rising as high as
you can."

HE will never give up on you! You are very special to Him.
