A Time to Sow

Life is about sowing!  The real function of each generation is to sow the seeds that will make a better world possible in the future. Spring brings in the time to sow the seeds of the fields and our gardens.  For the sower there is a vision and compelling want to see the grown crops and enjoy the fresh cucumbers and other tasty items from the garden.

The soul of a sower knows the time to sow is now!  The sower should work without ceasing, never knowing when the seed will take root, and never quitting until it does.  Sowing is a slow process and rarely are there instantaneous results!  We live in a world in great need of sowers.  The people who have the conviction and patience, and know the possibilities, do take on the moral task of sowing.

Ok, remember this..."If there is a need, sow a seed."  Take action!  We know that sowing is the act of planting.  Plant the seeds of faith in your growing children.  Plant the seeds of love in your marriage.  Plant the seeds of financial blessings for those who need.  Plant the seeds of compassion in the wounded.  Plant the seeds of hope in a failing situation.  The growth of those seeds can better a situation!  Sometimes it takes courage to toss out the seeds and the act of planting seems in vain.  You may not always get to see the results of your planting; but be content to know that the Holy Spirit can make the conditions perfect for those seeds to root and grow.

Do not get discouraged as a sower; and keep in mind that the world needs urgent sowers to keep tossing the good seeds! Make a daily decision to sow for God's Kingdom growth too, so that all may receive His salvation!

May you feel the joy of Jesus today!
