Branded Quote:
“The soil of struggle often yields the fruit of strength.
You are a seed of purpose, hidden for a season, but born to bloom.”
— FEDAMI
The Backstory:
This quote was born in a quiet, tear-stained journal during a season when everything felt buried: dreams, joy, confidence, and even prayer.
I had done all the “right things”, worked hard, prayed often, and showed up faithfully, yet life felt stuck. Nothing was blooming.
But as I sat in reflection, God whispered something deep into my heart:
“Seeds don’t grow in the sun. They grow in the soil.
And the soil, child, is dark.”
That moment birthed this line.
Because sometimes your most significant growth comes when everything looks like it’s falling apart.
Just like a seed, your struggle is not your burial, it's your planting.
A Poem:
The soil is not soft.
It is heavy. It is hidden.
It presses in close like unanswered prayers.
And stretches your faith when nothing moves.
But beneath that soil…
Roots are forming.
Dreams are anchoring.
A bloom is preparing.
So if you're in a season of waiting,
of weeping,
Of wondering where your light went
Remember:
You are a seed of purpose.
And seeds bloom best after the dark.
Reflection Prompts:
- What has your current season taught you about growth?
- Can you name one fruit (lesson, strength, or skill) that came from a struggle in your past?
- How can you stay encouraged while “hidden in the soil”?
