The tree and the flower

rose animation

The Lord showed me a big oak tree with roots that went far into the ground and this oak tree was so strong that nothing could touch it then a little tiny flower grew at its base and stood true and straight before the sun. One day a big storm came worse than anyone had ever seen the tree groaned in its agonies it was inflexible before the wind.
The flower on the other hand bent in the wind and swayed with it
eventually despite the deep roots that the tree had it fell and hit the ground with a mighty crash that broke all its branches and it lay dead on the ground but the flower was saved because it was flexible and bent with the wind despite it not being big and strong and rooted deeply.  Then I felt God saying to me that not all ground is strong for you to root in the best ground is my son be rooted in him and the storms tho they be strong and vast will pass you over because my son takes the wind and calms it and makes it safe for you to live

The tree had the roots invested in the wrong things and they proved to be no protection for the tree itself it fell on its own pride and strength but having strength through and in me is the way of life
