In the barren dessert of a soul
a tiny seed fell.
A gentle sprinkling of the Holy
Spirit
fell upon the seed.
Lo, soon a delicate sprout shyly
pushed its head
through the dampened earth.
From the River of Life
a stream began to flow
through the sin parched
wasteland,
trickling alongside the tender
seedling,
nurturing it, coaxing it to
grow.
Strengthened by latent nutrients
activated by the Holy Word,
the young plant put forth
leaves.
Then one day, the sprinkling
turned into a downpour,
as the plant received the shower
of the Holy Spirit.
Its roots began to seek deeper
depths,
finding additional strength
to withstand torturous winds
that were sure to come.
The deeper the roots searched,
the more moisture they found.
The spiritual depths stabilized
the plant,
bringing maturity.
Maturity produced fruit on the
now strong plant;
Soon the fruit ripened and began
to fall--
spreading seeds.
Some seeds dropped gently around
the plant;
Some were carried by the wind to
far places,
constantly and continuously
spreading the Gospel,
bringing life to other barren
deserts,
perpetuating SEEDS.
