Seeds

I'm working on a PowerPoint presentation for our Annual Conference Luncheon. I've been doing some reading of older programs from anniversary dinners and annual reports, pulling out quotes to use in the presentation.

I kept finding references to planting seeds.

Isn't that something we do all the time? When we are raising children, when we are working, playing, sharing with friends, planning our finances. Aren't there many times when we plant seeds for the future?

I think planting seeds requires faith -- perhaps more faith than any of us have on our own. The faith we need is a gift of God, and it walks hand in hand with a fruit of the spirit -- patience.

May I have the patience and faith to plant seeds.
