Mark 26, 27 …So is the kingdom of God, as if a
man should cast seed into the
ground… and the seed should spring and grow up, he knows not how.
Seed casters. Living in
Christ will make us seed casters. The kingdom of God grows as the seed is cast
into the world. The seed is referred to in scripture often as the Gospel. The
good news that Jesus came to save us from our sins and we can have new life in
Him. The seed we cast can also be seen as casting our fruit before men, that
they may see the grace of God working in our lives. We cast out words of
kindness, acts of mercy, God’s love when others are hurting. Seed casting is
more that just being a Bible thumper. We do have a responsibility to warn
others of the dangers of sin and the eternal consequences, but to be a true
seed caster we must live in the image of Christ, and give ourselves, so others
can also experience new life in Christ. We are called to be seed caster, the rest is left to God.
The Holy Spirit takes our seed and begin the work in the life of someone else.
We may never see that life emerge, grow, and bloom, but we can rest assure that
we have obeyed God and have committed our lives to casting seed.
