Planting Seed

Making ready the soil
for the planting seed,
Or posturing the heart
to embrace great love,
Requires a gentle gardener
and a loving lord;
God is both and one.
Lord God, let not Your seed
fall upon a stony path,
or rocky soil, or amongst
choking thorns, as my
heart can often be.
Please prepare this soil
for Your planting seed
that it may be good,
that it may well grow
whatever You will
in a heart open
only to Thee.
Psalm 10:17
1 Chronicles 29:18
Matthew 13:1-23
