You will find the baby wrapped in cloths and lying a in a manger. Luke 2:12
As a child, I loved blowing dandelion seeds into the wind. I never knew where they would land, but I always hoped they take root somewhere unseen. When my children were young, I taught them the same. Now with my grandchildren, I wonder about all the seeds that floated out on the breeze.
Christmas reminds us of a greater mystery. When Christ came into the world, He arrived not in grandeur, but in humility, born in a manger. The announcement of His birth was given to humble shepherds.
Christ was born into modest beginnings, yet His life scattered seeds through His teaching and His love for people. Then on the cross His sacrifice became the salvation of the world, and His story spread across nations and generations.
The words we share, the kindness we show, the hope we carry, these are seeds too. They seem small, but God can carry them farther than we imagine. Just as the Spirit carried the good news from Bethlehem outward, He also carries our seeds of faith. These seeds reach places we may never see.
This season, let us scatter seeds of Christmas hope, trusting that God will bring the growth. For the humble arrival of Christ is God’s reminder that even the smallest seed can change the world.
If this seed of hope touched you, consider sharing it so others may be encouraged too
