Topic: Feeding For Living

Text: " …And the seed should spring and grow up, he
knoweth not how" (Mark 4:27).

Physical growth is hard to detect. Growing from
childhood into adulthood isn’t something you
observe in the mirror. Healthy growth is so
gradual you don’t notice it. Rather than actually
observing the growth process, you simply live out
the results of growth. The results of growth are
seen when perhaps you are given more
responsibility, buy different sized clothes, or
know a little bit more than last year.
Spiritual growth is the same. Many times, we
don’t see ourselves growing in the Lord. In the
parable of the farmer in Mark 4:27, he plants
seed but doesn’t actually observe the growth
process. He doesn’t know how it grows; it just
happens. All he knows is that one day he is
enjoying the crop that came from that growth
process. Like the farmer, if you have planted the
right “seed” you will experience a good crop. By
putting God’s Word in your heart and staying
close to the Lord, you don’t know how it
happens, you just grow! Eventually, you see the
results of that growth because people will begin
to notice the fruit growing on the tree of your
life. While you may not see it, you are growing
and have probably come much further than you
realize. So keep feeding on His word and in no distant future from now, your lifestyle will reflect your spiritual diet style.

PRAYER
Father, thank You for helping me grow and for
leading me in how far I have already come. I know
that many shall receive from the fruit that will
continue to grow in my life. In Jesus’ Name,
amen.
