Seeds amaze me!  Have you ever thought about what one little seed can do.  One tiny little seed can be planted in dirt, watered, given light and grow to be a large plant or tree.  Many times they bear fruit for eating, flowers for beauty or become a home for animals, insects and creatures.  Amazing what one little seed can do!

I feel we can gleen alot from nature and these simple but profound gifts that our Creator has given us.  We people are alot like these seeds.  We start small in our mother’s womb, we are feed and nutured, and if cared for the way God intended, grow to be extraordinary people. We people can do amazing things as well.  Everything and everyone is created for a purpose.  Value life.

Life is not always easy as most of us know. I have had my share of experiences in my short time here and it is with great honesty that I can say life is down right hard.

Though, I truly believe that this earthly plane is our testing ground. A place for us to grow spiritually by learning from life. We are made to learn from our mistakes and to grow from our experiences. Pain and tragedy reveal so much to us. We are mortal and fragile, here one day and gone with a blink of the eye. There are some that believe there is no purpose to this life and I truly respect you if you feel that way. However, I can not bring myself to believe that our great universe, us as a human race, our experiences, etc… are accidental. I put my hope in the promises that God has made to us in His Word.

I am thankful to God for giving me purpose and reason for being here. I am truly thankful for the sacrificial life of Jesus Christ and believe Him to be our savior. I am grateful to all the blessings that He has giving me including a beautiful family and great friends.

I pray and give thanks for all these things and pray that whoever reads this will seek God out and be blessed by His words.

Here is a great passage from God’s Word:
26 Jesus answered them and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled. 27 “Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you, for on Him the Father, God, has set His seal.” 28 Therefore they said to Him, “What shall we do, so that we may work the works of God?” 29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent.” 30 So they said to Him, “What then do You do for a sign, so that we may see, and believe You? What work do You perform? 31 “Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, ‘HE GAVE THEM BREAD OUT OF HEAVEN TO EAT.’” 32 Jesus then said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread out of heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread out of heaven. 33 “For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world.” 34 Then they said to Him, “Lord, always give us this bread.”
35 Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will not hunger, and he who believes in Me will never thirst. 36 “But I said to you that you have seen Me, and yet do not believe. 37 “All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out. 38 “For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. 39 “This is the will of Him who sent Me, that of all that He has given Me I lose nothing, but raise it up on the last day. 40 “For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day.” John 6:26-40

Have a blessed Thanksgiving day!
