Just me trying to be honest with God.

“The true meaning of life is to plant trees, under whose shade you do not expect to sit.” Nelson Henderson

“Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.” John 12 ESV

It is said that the trees of a thousand forests live in a single acorn. Of course, the acorn must die before it can yield such incredible fruit. Jesus is certainly the God’s best illustration of this. Each of us is a living seed. We may selfishly consume our precious kernel or sow it in the soil of service. Our greatest potential is powerfully released when we stop living only for ourselves and begin living for benefit of others. 5/3/010 Conversations Within ts
