Seeds

Seeds are crazy little things. It blows my mind how the tiniest of acorns can grow into a mighty tree. All you have to do is drop into good soil, add water, and wait.

There is so much information and potential contained in this little package. 

There are so many lessons to be learned from seeds- Jesus taught many. Lately I've been caught up with the idea of how we "plant" seeds.  As we share truths about God and the gospel we are planting seeds. Heck, even when we tell ourselves lies we plant seeds. Everything is a seed, just not everything grows. What are you watering? What are you putting more focus and energy into?

When you plan seeds as in for a garden, you put a few in the hole and thin them out later. The glory isn't to what specific seed grew but to the "fruit" and harvest that will be produced. It's not about the glory of the seed itself or the planter but about the glory of the harvest. 

Jesus teaches all these things, Paul reinforces them, and I'm just amazed at how much they have to teach me.
