Howdy rowdy my awesome Hive family! I've been missing in action for almost a week after I published my second blog in here. It's not that I lost my interest in this platform, it's just that I became too busy these past few days because of my work. Well, I thought I could manage my time very well since the end of my shift is 5 pm.
However, no one told this lil freshie tree that it would be so draining and tiring right after I end my shift everyday. All I've been wanting to do is eat a lot of food and have a warm shower to at least relax my tense muscle and crying brain cells.
I am just glad that I have my boyfriend whom I could run to, when everything around me is already immensely suffocating and stressing.
Anyhow, we won't be talking about my work, my laziness and demotivation in this piece of cr@p, I mean art rather. Lol. A friend of mine who happens to be in this platform as well tagged or mentioned me in her blog post today which is a challenge in the Ladies of Hive Community.
Upon reading it, the only words that came out from my mouth was "thanks God, you saved me sissy." Well, that's certainly true. Just like what I have stated, my job is squeezing every creative idea juices of my lil brain to the point that nothing's left for me anymore.
Therefore, a challenge or prompt would be of great help for me to overcome my writer's block every now and then.
So yeah, I think I 've said too much already but still haven't exposed the topic that I'll be focusing on. So, let's get into it and see if I'll be able to pull it off.
For today's challenge, we will be talking about a certain song that definitely have a great impact to my life.
Actually, this is quite amazing since I was just singing that song earlier and even think of writing it in an article. SO, maybe, universe really wants me to share that song to all of you as well. Maybe you will love it too.

Full Lyrics and video of the song
Song: Seasons Bold
By: Hillsong Worship
Like the frost on a rose
Winter comes for us all
Oh how nature acquaints us
With the nature of patience
Like a seed in the snow
I’ve been buried to grow
For Your promise is loyal
From seed to sequoia
If you have observed, my pseudonym was mentioned in this verse and to tell you honestly? It is where I get my screen name Sequoia. This verse wanted us to know that all of us will actually face winter seasons. When everything just seems to be an opposite of our plans. Moments when we feel like we've been buried and forgotten. but the real thing is we are being plated to grow and be the person that God ought us to be.
Though the winter is long even richer
The harvest it brings
Though my waiting prolongs even greater
Your promise for me like a seed
I believe that my season will come
We may feel like we've been left behind. But we just have to keep in mind that our season will come. It may take a while but it will come. Maybe God is just preparing us for greater things that awaits for us ahead.
Lord I think of Your love
Like the low winter sun
As I gaze I am blinded
In the light of Your brightness
Like a fire to the snow
I’m renewed in Your warmth
Melt the ice of this wild soul
Till the barren is beautiful
No one could really fathom how great and amazing God's love for us. When the time comes that you no longer understands things, then just trust Him and his process.
Everything might be blurry and unsure for now, but always remember that God's promises are yes and amen. Wherever you are right now, just believe that it won't stay like that forever. We have to keep in mind that the God we served is a God of impossible things and He can do a lot of things in just a snap of His finger. Never let anything make you believe that God have abandoned you because He never did and He never will.
This is the song that I am always holding unto whenever I feel bad and alone. Indeed, finding a song is such a great therapy for us to feel at ease and calm the raging storm inside of us.
Anyways, thanks for reading till the end everyone! Have an awesome night ahead!
