PRUNED FOR PURPOSE: From Surrender to Restoration
2025 was my PRUNING SEASON.
A year of deep, divine refinement that tested every part of my soul.
God gently but firmly asked me to let go of pride that had quietly taken root, anger that flared too easily, hatred that lingered in hidden corners, and fear that paralyzed my steps forward.
The hardest part? He even called me to release something I'd poured my heart and soul into building for over a decade. A dream, a ministry, a legacy I thought was unbreakable. It felt like losing a piece of myself.
The pain was raw and unrelenting. It broke me in ways I never imagined, stripping away layers of self-reliance until I had nothing left but tears and surrender.
But in that brokenness, I chose to trust. I surrendered fully, because I remembered the words of Jesus
John 15:2: "Every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful."
I know the Master Gardener only prunes the branches He loves. The ones connected to the Vine, the ones He intends to make abundantly fruitful. He doesn't cut to destroy; He cuts to heal, to redirect energy, to prepare for greater growth.
Today, as the year draws to a close, I'm boldly claiming 2026 as my BLOOMING SEASON.
The year of divine restoration, where what was lost is redeemed and multiplied.
The year of greater things. Deeper joy, wider impact, stronger faith.
The year He reveals why every tear, every cut, every moment of surrender was worth it.
Thank You, Lord, for loving me enough to prune what was holding me back, even when it hurt the most.
I trust Your perfect timing and Your better plans. You are faithful, and I can't wait to see the harvest You have in store.
If you’re in a pruning season right now ,hold on.
The comeback is coming... better than you could’ve imagined.
