Thank you for this meditation on seeds and planting. One of my favorite subjects. It's good but hard to trust God in the various crazy situations he brings. So good to remember He is always purposefully working.

You’re welcome! Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Trusting God in the “buried seed” seasons can feel nearly impossible at times. Yet creation keeps whispering the same mystery back to us: what looks hidden, broken, or delayed is often where new life is already beginning.

I loved this insight into God's love for us as His children. How he teaches us to embrace the unexpected and challenges in our life as His seed and gift for us to grown in Him and fill the earth with His Word and Grace. Thank you.

Thank you so much. It reminds me both of James saying that every good and perfect gift comes from above, and of Jesus describing the Kingdom as seed growing quietly in the earth while the farmer sleeps. God seems to delight in bringing life from places we least expect, often long before we understand what He is doing. And I delight in seeing how this landed in you!
