SOWING THE WORD



It is said of an English traveler that he so loved the wild flowers that grew at the sides of the lanes & in the fields of England, that when he went abroad he would fill his pockets with the seeds & scatter them broadcast.

Almost every day we live, there are opportunities for sowing the seed of God in some heart; it may be some simple word, some kindly act. Just a line in a letter we write, or a text we quote & the seed is sown and some life is blessed.

The Lord says: “So will my message be that goes out of my mouth— it won’t return to me empty. Instead, it will accomplish what I desire, and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” (Isa 55:11 ISV)

“Anyone can count the seeds in an apple, but only God can count the number of apples in a seed.” - Robert H. Schuller.
