Growing things. Sometimes it’s easy. Sometimes it’s not. As we choose to grow with God, God doesn’t make us stronger and stronger, but weaker and weaker. That can seem odd—maybe even weird—but as we become less and less, God within becomes more and more.
In Sunday’s scripture, Jesus speaks to growth by mentioning death. In John 12:24, he says, “Unless a kernel of wheat is planted and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce new kernels—a plentiful harvest of new life.”
Make the harvest plentiful. Don’t be alone. Understand our struggles makes our faith stronger by joining us Sunday.
Until then, God bless you and amen.
