Good Seeds

Bible Reading : Mark 4:1-9

When you plant an apple seed, it grows and makes more apples. This is what always happens.You can't plant an apple seed and grow green beans.

It is the same with our thoughts and actions. We can't put unkind, selfish, evil ideas in our mind and expect to be a loving, kind , unselfish person.

If we want to be a person who follows God , we must plant good "seeds" in our minds. Philippians. 4:8 tells us what these " seeds are. " Brothers and sisters, continue to think about the things that are good and worthy of praise. Think about the things that are true and honorable and right and pure and beautiful and respected."

These are the kinds of seeds we should be planting in our minds.And if we pray and study the Bible, we will help these good "seeds" to grow in us.Then we will have good thoughts and actions in our lives.

Think about these good " seeds" today.Ask God to help you bring honor to Him.

We will grow to be like Christ in every way. Christ is the head and we are the body ." Ephesians 4 :15b

PRAYER : Dear Father, help me to plant these good "seeds in my life today. Help me to always think right things.In Jesus' name. Amen
