The Seeds of the Bible

Take a handful of seeds and look at them.  They are just small, dry bits of plants.  If you put them in a drawer or on a shelf, in a year you will find that nothing has changed at all.  You can prize them and put them on display, but they still will do nothing. Seeds must be sown in order for them to accomplish what they were meant to.

Take your bible and look at it.  It is full of paper and ink.  If you put it in a drawer or on a shelf, in a year you will find that nothing has changed at all.  You can prize your Bible and put it on display, but it will still do nothing.  The Bible must be sown in order for it to accomplish what it was meant to do.

The Bible was meant to be read and shared with others.  We must sow the truths of the scriptures to all people.  When the word of God is sown into the hearts of men, those seeds can take root and bring forth life.

Is the word of God being sown into your life?  Are you reading God's word so that life can spring forth into your heart?  Are you sowing God's word into the hearts of others?  Are you helping to unlock life in others or are you ignoring God's word and allowing death to take the souls of men?
