Seed. Flower. Seeds.

=> From a Seed to a Flower which in return produces more Seeds. Hallelujah.

April 17th, 2009. the day that mrs. (insert her last name that i can't remember at the moment but i'm pretty sure it starts with a S) accepted christ and obtained her all access pass to being saved my Jesus Christ. age makes no difference; we are all children of christ whether we're 5, 16, or 70 something like mrs.S.
our church had a chinese outreach program thing that night. i was just helping out to watch the kids (relive my younger yrs, regress a it ;) ). so as we were leaving my dad went into the santuary to just say bye. next thing we know mrs.W tells us that mrs.S accpeted christ. so naturally we sit with them (along with a few others) just to see that she truely understands what it means to accept christ and to answer any questions that she may have for us.
one of the things she was worried about was because her whole family was worshipers of false idols, that they would be upset that she suddenly accpeted christ without discussing it with them first. and because of it she might get pressured to in a way "turn her back away" from God. being that she was chinese and didn't understand english, i wasn't able to say much. what i did tell her though in my broken and accented chinese was, "you're like a seed that will bloom into a flower. from you as a flower, will then produce so many more seeds. these seeds would be you're whole family."

as on the spot as this analogy came to me (well maybe not the analogy of it, pretty sure it came of a sermon), but as on the spot as the wording came to me, i can truely feel that it's words that God's given to me. that the words could really have an impact on mrs.S that i'll never know of, especially given the fact that theres an age and language barrier. i had the first line of this post as part of my sn on msn; like sharon puts it, it really is cuteness. Hallelujah.
