WE CAN PLANT THE SEED BUT WE CAN’T DETERMINE ITS GROWTH
1 min readIn Jesus’ story the farmer did his part – he sowed the seed. All he could do was to trust, exercise patience and wait. These are not easy virtues, yet life calls for a lot of these virtues.
There is something we can do, and which God will not do for us. However, we also need to know that we can’t do everything on our own. Spiritual and human development is a process. It will go on provided we do not resist it.
In the great process of growth, healing, recovery and spiritual progress, we are only facilitators. We can plant the seed but we can’t determine its growth. It is God who gives the increase. We should learn patience from watching nature. Our partnership with God will surely yield massive fruits like the mustard seed if we trust in God’s potent power and our own limited power.
I pray that the grace of God will enable you do your own part and the favour of God will maximize your yield through Christ Our Lord Amen!
Happy Sunday!
