If we could only learn from the seed buried in the ground. Though it seems defeated, dead and done with, one of the greatest miracles on earth, resurrection, occurs to it. It first has to die before it can give new life. It depends completely on God for this to happen. I pray God gives us grace to be this patient.
Psalm 43:5 NET Bible
5 Why are you depressed, O my soul? Why are you upset? Wait for God! For I will again give thanks to my God for his saving intervention.
John 12:24 (NLT)
24 I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce many new kernels–a plentiful harvest of new lives.
