4 years ago we planted a little southern magnolia tree in our front yard, and since then it seems like it has done just about nothing but hang on and survive. No blooms. Very little growth. I was just about to rip it up until the most amazing thing happened...a single bloom appeared on our little tree. This whole time I thought it was doing nothing, but as it turns out it just needed a little more time. Well...how often is this the exact lesson we need to remember when it comes to our other relationships? We often have wrong expectations of others or even ourselves...our children, prospective Christians, other Christians, etc. We assume that they aren't growing or won't bear fruit, when in reality, we just need to give it a little more time.
