His word is the seed

Well I was on the trip too...so I should give my version of the events! It was a small hare. I hit it going 120kph. It cracked the radiator tank, and we could not get it repaired till Tuesday. So we had an enforced 2 day holiday.

But the lessons learnt were the amazing things. Here's mine:

  • Firstly, it seemed like God's peace was over me. There was no worry. No stress. Instead of saying "why me?" it was "Lord, what can I learn from this?", and "Lord, how can I use this to serve your purpose?"
  • It gave me a chance to develop my relationship skills -with Emma, Zee, Eliza (Emma's friend), the mechanics, people at the Church...I just felt in relationship developing mood.
  • I got the sermon about "you reap what you sow"...but for me the key point was "the seed is his Word". It's all there...written down for us. All we have to do is read it!

I am happy at the moment to just grow in my faith. Read, explore, question, understand. Sort it out...reason it through. Read the Bible my friends. A sentence, a paragraph, a chapter. 1 minute, 10 minutes, an hour. It's God's seed into us. I am lucky cause when I read it I enjoy it. It's not always been the case, but as I read it more...the more I love to read it.
