3 Signs You’ll Be Piercing the Darkness Very Soon

Maybe you’ve not been buried at all

1. Breakdowns

For a seed to become a plant, it breaks down from the inside out. It comes completely undone. Its shell cracks open and its insides spill out. If you didn’t understand what was happening, you’d think the seed is being destroyed. But there’s no destruction happening to the seed. Something else is happening.

Growth.

For that tiny seed to grow into a seedling, it must be tossed in the dirt and buried in the darkness. This is not because the seed is not worthy of the light, but because the darkness is required for growth.

In the darkness, massive transformation and development take place.

When a seed is stuck in the darkness, it struggles. It struggles to pierce through the soil to make its way to the light, but the struggle isn’t without purpose.

It's all part of the plan.

The struggle makes the seedling grow stronger. It prepares the seedling for what’s coming and plenty will come.

2. Growing Pains

For that little seedling to grow into a big tree, its roots must go deep into the heart of the earth so that it can get stronger for when the storm comes.

If the seedling springs into the light too quickly without first growing deep into the earth, it’d stand no chance when the storm comes. It would be uprooted and washed away.

With deep roots, when the rains fall, the little seedling doesn’t fall. When the strong winds come in, it may bend but it never breaks.

It doesn’t fall or break or get washed off because it is deeply grounded and secure in the earth in which it was buried.

When it’s deeply grounded, it can grow into a mighty tree with beautifully colored leaves and tasty fruits. It can spread its branches and reach for the heaves because it has roots in the heart of the earth.

But something else happens to the tree that on the outside would look like destruction if you didn’t understand what was happening.

Autumn comes and as if the tree hasn’t been through enough, it loses all of its beautiful leaves and is left naked.

The struggles don’t end there.

Winter comes to teach it a lesson.

During winter, the tree is left out in the snow. It’s left in the cold with its leaves gone and nothing to keep it warm but when it perseveres, springs come bearing new and vibrant leaves.

When the tree sprouts fresh and vibrant leaves, you know that summer is near bringing its warmth.

After the long, cold winter, the sun returns, providing the tree with what it needs to keep growing to become beautiful and fruitful again.

Growth is a process.

3. Weathering Storms

A seed needs both darkness and light to grow. It needs the pain and the suffering. The struggles and the difficulty serve a purpose. Without them, the seed wouldn’t be strong. Without strength, it couldn’t withstand the storm to grow into its best form.

This is the same for you.

Maybe, like the seed, you feel like you're stuck in a dark place and coming completely undone. Maybe it feels as if you’re crushing from the inside out.

But like a seed, you’re not being destroyed. You’re not buried. You’re planted.

And despite the discomfort of being in the dirt in the dark, you’re growing.

You’re growing through a difficult time so you can transform into the best, highest, strongest, and greatest version of yourself.

This is to give you hope that something amazing is going to happen if you find yourself in a dark place. Even right now, reading these words, you may be in the midst of a breakthrough without knowing it.

But breakthroughs happen for those who trust in the universe. It happens to those who believe they deserve them. It happens for those who feel worthy.

If you feel lost, alone, and hopeless, it’s a sign you're getting close to the end. If you’ve felt troubled and confused before, don’t lose hope.

Life always gives the hardest challenges to the special ones who chose to come here to complete a mission. It entrusts the toughest battles to the strongest warriors.

If you're struggling in the dark, don’t panic. You were created and chosen for this. Divine powers are always working for you because of who you are.

Don’t lose hope. You’re sprouting.

Keep growing. You’ll soon pierce the dark. Keep walking. You’ll soon see the light at the end of the tunnel.

The universe knows what you’ve endured and knows you deserve the best, and that’s why you must not give up.

You may be hurting deep inside, but if your heart is good, the pain will transform you from the inside out. You may be breaking down now, but a brand new you will emerge.

You are going to receive your breakthrough if you can trust what the universe is doing.

It may be dark but prepare for the light. After being in the dark for so long, the light can be blinding. Find some cool shades because you'll need them when, like a seedling, you pierce the darkness and sprout into the light.
