Genesis 1:22 NLT Then God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply.
We have two trees that look a bit like rounded lollipops and recently I noticed they were covered in helicopter seeds, all ready to fly far and wide and produce hundreds of little trees all over the place. It’s their season to multiply! I’m forever having to pull them up out the soil or I’d have a veritable forest in my garden!
But it reminded me how the word of God says for us to be fruitful and multiply, to sow seeds wherever we go just like our trees. Our season to multiply is all year round!😊
Whenever we share God’s goodness with someone, what Jesus has done for us, we’re potentially sowing seeds that will multiply in the soil of other people’s lives. We’re called to be salt and light, to be different to the people who don’t have God in their lives yet.
We’re called to share the good news that God loves them, has forgiven them and waits for them to come and be reconciled to Him. We can sow the seeds and share the good news that He still heals and delivers people out of hopeless situations, to give them a future and a hope in Jesus, that there is life after death and a home in heaven.
We have such good news to sow into the lives of others. Some of our seeds will take root and bear fruit, some will not, but we’re still called to send out our helicopters, our seeds, and let God do the rest.
So the word from God’s helicopter command base, is to launch some helicopters, to share our faith in Jesus this week with someone we meet, tell them how good He is to us and allow Him to put a rescue in operation.😊 In Jesus name. Amen.
