07.01.2022 Planting a seed in the ground gives us a perfect parallel of the Resurrection. In John 12:24, Jesus says, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of whea...t falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain." When it feels like you've been buried by life's adversity, remember that it doesn't end there. Through Grace, that darkness is a place to germinate, grow and then bloom.
