THE TWO SEEDS
(A short story with a powerful lesson)
In a quiet valley, two seeds lay side by side.
The first seed said,
"I want to grow! I want to push my roots deep and stretch toward the sky. I want to feel the sun, soak up the rain, and become all I was created to be."
And so it did.
It grew strong, bold, and full of life.
The second seed was afraid.
"What if I grow and something goes wrong? What if I’m uprooted? What if I'm not ready?"
So it stayed buried. It never grew.
And one day, a bird came along and ate the seed.
MORAL:
Fear feels safe, but it can keep you from your purpose.
Growth requires faith. Movement. Trust.
You were never created to stay buried.
SCRIPTURE:
“Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.”
John 12:24
Don't let fear stop you from becoming what you were planted to be.
