“Those who go out weeping, carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with them.”

Psalm 126:6

“Beloved, that pain that you are currently feeling cannot compare to the joy that is coming. I am able to take the very heartache and use it as a launching pad to propel your farther into your destiny. As I did with Joseph, so I will do with you; I’ll take what the enemy meant to do for harm and use it for your good (Genesis 50:20)!

“Fear not, neither be dismayed. I am working even in the mess. Who but I can bring beauty from ashes?

“and provide for those who grieve in Zion– to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor.”

Isaiah 61:3

“Open your hands and freely surrender all to Me. Truly, unless a seed falls to the ground and dies the can be no harvest (John 12:24). The death that many are experiencing will soon give way to new life; this can include the death of a relationship, a dream, or the death of how you thought things would be. Know that I am always working for your good. Trust Me and release all outcomes to Me.

“‘For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,’ declares the LORD. ‘As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.'”

Isaiah 55:8-9

“Be encouraged and know that your story is far from over. Truly, the best is yet to come. Trust Me in the process, and be assured that I am bringing you out of this restricted place and into a spacious place of freedom. The painful areas that you are walking through will be used one day to help others. As you yield to Me, I will take your pain and use it as a launching pad! Fear not, for I am working mightily in your midst!”

“He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.”

Psalm 18:19
