Planting seeds is risky! Not all seeds grow and your money, time and work can be wasted. But how do plants grow without someone taking that risk? What would our world look like if no one planted seeds?
Plant seeds are not the only seeds we can sow. We can sow seeds of kindness, love, and friendship. Seeds of the gospel. We plant seeds in our children's lives. Seeds of truth, wisdom, the Bible, and all the different things we can teach them. We plant seeds in our own life by reading and meditating on God's Word etc.
Seeds don't sprout up immediately. They take a lot of time, patience and consistent care.
I am not a patient person. I like to see results. Immediately!!
These verses have been a big help to me, encouraging me to keep going, keep planting and have hope that at least some of the seeds will grow.
He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.
As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.
In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good. Ecclesiastes 11:4-6
Keep on planting good seeds and water them faithfully with prayer. It is the only way to reap a harvest.
