My child, I uproot, but I also plant. I prune and trim and cut back all that destroys, but I have compassion, I water and keep My covenant with all those who turn to Me. I am with you in the drought, the rain and the storm. I bring you through to refresh you, restore you and to give you rest. I alone am your Redeemer, your Sustainer, your all and all. Cling to Me in all the seasons of life. I am with you wherever you go.
