My creation teaches you that from tiny seeds, great trees grow that will live for centuries, providing shade and protection from the sun, providing a home for birds, providing food for the squirrels, and bearing seeds which also contain the germ of life, each one capable to growing into another beautiful tree.  And what about a baby?  A miracle, you say – that from two tiny cells that join together, nine months later a human baby is born.  A tiny person, who can see, and think, and hear, and eventually speak.  One of my perfect creations, and one of my precious children created in My image.

So all My creation speaks of Me and My creative power.  The seeds I have sown in the world spring forth with tremendous fruit!  As I said, “If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.”  Matthew 17:30  I took the five small loaves and two small fishes and multiplied them to feed 5000.  I took Noah and his family and from those eight souls saved from the flood I repopulated the earth.  

I was born in a stable, to a young virgin mother who was chosen to bring Me into this world.  I was raised in a humble home with faithful parents who knew that they had been chosen to raise Me until the day I was called to begin my ministry on earth.  And then I chose 12 disciples – all simple, humble, unlearned men, who answered My call to follow Me.  From the seeds that I sowed in the world – the seeds of the Word, the seeds of love, the seeds of light that I brought into the world – those 12 disciples carried My message to the world.  They obeyed Me when I called them to “Go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. (Matthew 28:19-20) And over the centuries those seeds have grown and covered the earth!

So don’t get discouraged if you think, “But I am just a little light – I have just a tiny light – there are so many who can shine much brighter than I shine. “  Remember what the disciples said, “There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?” John 6:9  Even though that offering seemed so small, I greatly multiplied it! Remember that I am the God of the universe and I take the tiniest seeds and use them to produce amazing fruit.  Shine on!  This is your hour, this is your time to shine!
