mark 4
By Danica on May 29th, 2008“The kingdom of God is like a man who casts seed upon the soil; and he goes to bed at night and gets up by day, and the seed sprouts and grows — how, he himself does not know…” –mark 4
I sow the little brown, plain-jane seeds into the soil.
I go to bed at night and get up by day: I do what I’m supposed to be doing. (And can I just say that is, like, the perfect description of how my life feels right now?)
And God — God! — causes seeds to sprout, to grow. He amazes me with a harvest. (How, I myself do not know.)
That was all the Word I needed today.
So, whose blog is this, anyway? It's mine, and here are few tidbits about me: My name is Danica. Like the race car driver, whose name I know, but whose career I know nothing about. A Nascar fan I am not. Things like reading, playing piano, gardening, cooking, sewing, writing, and keeping my bathroom bleached are more up my alley.
This is so precious. So simple yet so very satisfying. So simple yet so very empowering. So simple yet accessible only by faith.
Gotta love the simplicity of the Word. It’s available to whosoever will.

That is what my friend in NY says is: “Rich”
