Not in neat rows

Sowing the seeds we are given
the gifts shared with us
to be used with abandon
sowing God’s seeds of love

Not in neat rows
to a select few
scattering the seeds to the whole world
hoping some will grow

Matthew 13:1-11; 24-30
“Waste and Grace”,
by Rev. Frank Gulinello, Jr.
“ Jesus’ parable of the Sower focuses on the scattering of the seed.
No matter what kind of ground it falls upon, whether hardpan or
deep rich soil, God will have a harvest yielding a hundred fold.
So, scattering the seed aimlessly is not wasteful in God’s economy.”
