Scatter Your Seeds

I write a poem nobody reads,
Am I not still sharing His word?
The song I sing nobody hears
Is a song I've sung for the Lord.

Scatter your seeds though many fall
On shallow ground or rocky soil.
If but one lands on fertile ground
It just might turn a life around.
Scatter your seeds, scatter your seeds.
A good sower will scatter seeds.
Some don't take root, you've done your best
Ask the Lord to care for the rest.
A sower sows and some seed grows
Where, not even the sower knows.
Scatter by words or sow by deeds.
A sower's job is scattering seeds.

Joyce, and like a packet of seeds some take hold and some don't but the ones that become the beauiful things grown are well worth the effort.

This was nice, and it's nice you try. The ones that don't seem to take root...well I think they do, they just don't show it in the same ways as other, but I will never believe Gods Words *ever* go void. God bless.

(sigh) God Bless You, dearest friend, and may you always scatter your blessings and love like dandelion seeds and let the incense fill the nostrils of all the believers and pollenate their hearts with faith and wisdom! (kiss on cheek) I love this, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Joyce, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
