Awaiting Seed

Hey everybody!
We had a realy AWESOME presentation last night at our church from a Christian brother who happens to be a landscape architect. Our church has purchase 17. acres of land to build a new church/activity building/lake/recreation areas/sabbatical area.....etc..... but something that he said during that presentation has kept coming back to me over and over......something that has great spiritual concepts to it. We were talking about the landscaping.....and he was discussing bringing in "natural grasses" into the area, & not "fighting" against the land with something that would not really be "native" to the area......FIRST thing here.....how much time....both in thoughts and actions.....do we spend trying to be something and plant ourselves somewhere that we are NOT or not meant to be at? Hmmm.......think on that one a while & allow Holy Spirit to bring God's Truth to you on that one.....but here is the "kicker" I was talking about.....he said, "There are many, many 'seeds' out there on that land, with a little mowing , that many of these "grasses" are already out there. We need to position ourselves in such a way through this life that we get "stirred up" (sometimes even mowed down) that it cultivates all those seeds that have been planted in our life throughout our lifetime.....things that have lain dormant for far too long. They are waiting on US to allow them to be cultivated......or they can just remain dormant......the choice is up to us.
I CHALLENGE each of you to allow the mowing and cultivating to begin.......go to places where you can get "watered" and "fertilized"........I double-dog dare you! You will NOT be disappointed, and it will not only benefit you but soooooooooooo many others! GO GOD!

God's love & mine,
