Seeds of the Cross:
Broken Sowers of Living Seeds
What did we do with our children, including this child who has already returned to our Lord? We sowed seeds of love into their hearts, seeds of prayer, seeds of tears, seeds of hope, seeds of nurturance, seeds of loving discipline, seeds of teaching about our Lord.
Our Lord's Holy Word says,
"Those who sow in tears
will reap with songs of joy.
He who goes out weeping,
carrying seed to sow,
will return with songs of joy,
carrying sheaves with him."
~Psalm 126:5-6
As we carry this cross of loss, grief, and pain, and yes, brokenness, let us remember
It does not end at the cross;
It ends with Jesus;
It ends with Joy;
It ends with Jewels in our crown as we see our children by our sides again.
For God says,
"Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy"
...carrying sheaves with us, the fruit of all our labor invested in our loved ones, our beloved children.
