August 26th 2025 – The Apple Seed

“Foolish one, what you sow is not made alive unless it dies.” (1 Corinthians 15:36)

God is an incredibly creative force in our lives. In His infinite wisdom, He not only creates fruits and vegetables that sustain us but also provides seeds that hold the promise of new life and growth. Each seed is a testament to the potential that lies within.

Recently, as I was slicing an apple to share with my pet chickens, I found myself reflecting on the hidden potential within that seemingly simple fruit. As I removed the seeds, I contemplated how many trees could emerge from those tiny seeds. While we can count the seeds and imagine the number of trees they could yield, what remains beyond our comprehension is the sheer abundance of apples that could spring forth from just one seed over the years.

This thought may seem ordinary, but let’s delve deeper into its application in our lives. When we earnestly ask Jesus for forgiveness and embrace the gift of being born again, we become like that seed, planted in fertile ground. Just as a seed must die to itself to sprout anew, our old selves must fade away to make room for the new life God has in store for us. As we surrender our lives to Christ, we unlock an extraordinary potential to impact the world around us.

The Lord gazes upon our lives with a profound understanding of our journey. He knows the countless times we will stumble, the moments of triumph, and the lives we will touch along the way. He holds the power to transform our lives into a fruitful harvest, but the question remains: Are you ready to produce? Are you prepared to grow and bear fruit? When you wholeheartedly commit your life to Christ and walk in obedience, you’ll witness remarkable transformations—not because you are the perfect seed, but because He is the perfect gardener. Trust Him, and watch as the harvest unfolds before your very eyes.

“Anyone can count the seeds in an apple, but only God can count the number of apples in a seed.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your unwavering love and grace that surround me daily. I am grateful for Jesus and the incredible gift of salvation that comes through Him. Lord, I praise You for Your faithfulness and ask that You help me fully grasp the impact my life can have when dedicated to Your purpose. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit and guide me to be fruitful for Your Kingdom. May I trust in Your plans and embrace the growth You desire for me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
