Full of His Glory

(I Corinthians 15:36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: - KJV)

I hope I never look at a farm in the same way again. Its beyond exciting to realize that ALL creation truly is full of the glory of God. The simple act of planting a seed, whether a flower, fruit, vegetable, or grain is a picture of our salvation. The seed was once a part of a whole plant which had all the glory God had created it with. The seed left that plant. A flower, a grain, a fruit, whatever it may be, no longer could partake in the riches of the whole. It comes to earth and dies, is buried, and at the appointed time, rises again a glorified body.

What a wonderful picture of what Jesus has done for me! The next time someone comments on the weather is an opportunity to explain how wonderful it is to see the plants sprout and grow, and how God created that cycle to continually remind us of His sacrifice. No wonder God proclaimed that as long as the earth stood, the seasons would not stop. I recon every change of seasons is cause for all the host of Heaven to shout for joy. Is it any wonder the rocks would cry out if we kept silent?
