Plant Good Seed

Ezekiel 17:5– “When he took of the seed of the land and planted it in fertile soil. He placed it beside abundant waters. He set it like a willow twig”

    Each time I visit a local grocery store, county market or road-side stand it is rewarding to see the small business owners display their wares so proudly.  I love to see the vibrant colors and smell the aromas of freshly harvested vegetables and fruits.  As an experimental chef, it is wonderful to mix and match the ingredients to make delicious dishes, desserts and beverages.  None of this would be possible if the farmers had not planted seed early in the sowing season.   In order to have a bountiful harvest the farmers must think in advance about the amount, variety and care of the plants they want to reap; and plant accordingly.

We must also be mindful of the ‘yield’ we want to develop and plant well.  Whether you are seeding into the life of a ministry; planting sound advice and encouragement into the life of a teen; sowing energy into a volunteer project or just placing great new thoughts into the fertile ground of your own creativity; it is important that you plant good seed and put it into fertile ground.  One apple seed can produce a mighty tree, which in turn can produce hundreds of apples each with dozens of seeds capable of producing vast orchards of future trees.  The exponential grown potential is mind-boggling. Your small initial sowing can make a tremendous difference  Make sure your seed counts.  Plant it now and plant it deep!

Every day is a good day; it is up to us to make it a GREAT day.    Be blessed!  Dr. JoAnn
