Today we pruned our roses. For a while they will look like ugly stubble and smell like manure fertilizer. Life is like that. We clipped off each flower but in time three more will take its place. In order to be beautiful you first have to go through the stink of ugliness. Be patient. God is working. “Every branch that does bear fruit God prunes, that it may bear more fruit” John 15:2
