A seed in your hand now is a forest on your land tomorrow. But in your hand also lies two important things, decision and consequences. If you decide that the seed needs to be planted and taken care of, you can enjoy the benefits years down the line. But if you choose not to, you know the consequences of that decision too. You have the power to set the destiny of that seed in motion. Will you just stare at it long enough for someone to come and do it for you? Or are you looking at its size and other physical conditions and questioning your decision?
Good night everyone. It's been a while. Hope you're all fine. I've been quiet busy and haven't posted much lately. I guess I had so many seeds in my hand that needed my attention hence that long break from Vocal Media.
Anyway, coming back to that topic, I realized that many a times, we are given this one seed that we often analyze and put away for later times. When later times finally arrive, we come up with some more excuses to rule out its purpose.
When we realize that we are only guardians or stewards of what is entrusted to us would we be happy and free to release things and let them go.
Some things are seeds. Let them go so you can receive a forest. Others are birds. Let them go so they can fly and fulfill their purpose.Don't doubt their potential. The little lad in John 6:1-3 did not examine and analyze his 2 fishes and 5 bread against the crowd (5000 men plus women and children). Instead, he trusted Jesus and released his lunch. In return, everyone got fed and 12 baskets of leftovers were collected! Isn't it wonderful?
What do you have in your hand? Is it small? Do not worry. Release it (them) to God and trust His timing. He'll surprise you, for "He makes all things beautiful in His time." ~ Ecclesiastes 3:11

GOD WILL CLOTHE YOU
Have you ever considered the wild flowers of the fields? How beautifully adorned these plants are? They don't work, nor do they toil, yet the Bible says that God clothes them, even though they only have a short life span. (Mathew 6:28-30).

My First Time Skiing and I Got Lost, Alone, in the French Alps
Looking back, I can trace some of my life’s biggest adventures to a simple action from my sister. She’d introduced me to Tommy (a very long time ago), a colleague of hers, who had overshared his penchant for Italian-looking women, and I ticked that box.

"Some things are seeds. Let them go so you can recieve a forest. Others are birds. Let them go so they can fly and fulfil their purpose." Those lines were do deep. I'm happy to see that you're back hehehehe
This is so warm and uplifting!! This lowkey called me out. Sometimes we’re just sitting there staring at the seed and meanwhile nothing’s happening because we never planted it. It’s really nice to see you back after the break —you were missed here, Kaya! 😊
