No matter what.

I believe God is the gardener. The one who knows a thing or two about potential. The one who sees the long game. The one who knows how to offer grace and patience. The one who convinces a stubborn world to love a little harder, to look a little deeper for the inherent value in others. The one who’s gonna break soil, who’s gonna fertilize, who’s gonna actively work to afford every opportunity for the tree to thrive 151915parable about the extension of grace.
