Buried...or Planted

Some have shovels
while others use their bare hands

to pick up dirt

big piles
big clumps

of dirt

to throw

at you
and
onto you

again
and
again

You do realize that they are trying to bury you, right?

Well, they buried Jesus
(in a tomb)

and you should know that when you've identified yourself with Christ
and embraced His Gospel

They will also try to bury you

But Jesus said things like

No one takes my life...
I have all power...
I am the Resurrection...

and you can find comfort in knowing
that even if they are successful in their attempts

it cannot spoil

His plan
His purpose
His provision

because

You do realize that He is trying to plant you, right?

And it appears to me that the only real difference between

burying something
and
planting something

is

the intention
the state
the condition

of the item during the time at which it is placed into the ground

So even when others throw dirt

with the intent to

consume you
cover you
cancel you

remember that although they may

sincerely
seemingly
successfully

be trying to bury you

He may simply be using their efforts...

to plant you

1 Corinthians 15:36
