Intentional Seed Sowing

I am a seed.
I look small and lifeless, but inside of me is a
Mysterious powerful indwelling LIFE.
When I meet soil, water, and light,
It's as though a resurrection happens.
For there, in the soil, as I lie still,
I am not dormant, but
Busy, incubating life within.
Add some water and some warmth and the
Miracle happens.
My favorite place to be be sown is in the human heart.
I can lie still literally for years but
When mixed with the water of tears and
The warmth of love,
I will provide a resurrection experience.
A sun rise experience.
A new birth experience.
So do not grow faint-hearted or weary.
Sow your seeds of kindness, compassion, faithfulness,
Love and mercy.
Sow abundantly, not sparingly,
For a packet of seeds costs so little.
But when you visit the heart-garden overunning,
You will be amazed.
