“Build houses and settle down; plant gardens and eat what they produce… Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper.”
Jeremiah 29:5, 7 NIV
Do you find yourself in a season not of your own choosing? Perhaps you are there as a result of your own sin, like the Jews exiled to Babylon, or maybe its simply one of life’s many changes. God tells us no matter where we are to bloom where we are planted. Even in the tough stretches He tells us to thrive, not just survive, to be good neighbors and to look out for the welfare of our communities. This is not necessarily easy; it calls for intention and stepping out of comfort zones, but it makes for fertile ground for whatever lies ahead. 🚦
