i'm on the topic of "Flowers, Fruits and Seeds" and from Fruits and Seeds Disposal, i quote:
"When the seeds of the tumbleweed, a plant of the Western plains, are ready to be dispersed, the entire plant withers and appears to die. When the wind blows, the plant stem breaks and the plant rolls across the plains, scattering seeds as it goes."
"When the seeds of the tumbleweed, a plant of the Western plains, are ready to be dispersed, the entire plant withers and appears to die. When the wind blows, the plant stem breaks and the plant rolls across the plains, scattering seeds as it goes."
Isn't it interesting how the tumbleweed disperses itself?
I picked up a few learning points from the paragraph above.
the entire plant withers and appears to die
How often we Christians "appear to die". Appear to die to our flesh and live in the Spirit. Sometimes we think we have died to self when we have not, sometimes i think i may have surrendered all when i'm still secretly holding on to some dear thing. then when do we truly die?
the plant stem breaks
when the breaking comes and we choose to be broken before our Lord. when the walls are down and the roof off. Nothing between my soul and the Saviour and nothing to hide or keep as a secret from people around. after brokeness then what?
scattering seeds as it goes
after the breaking there is life again.
after the breaking there is life again.
it is brokeness before revival.
may we be found broken before the Lord, allowing the Lord to have His way in our lives everyday.
