We planted a few seeds last weekend. Already they sprout and shed the shells. We’ve had such fun watching the little green sprouts push up through the dirt. The kids noticed the seeds hanging onto the green sprouts. “Hey look! There are the seeds we planted! Why are they still connected to the plant?” We talked about how seeds germinate and studied pictures of the process. But as I continue to watch these seeds come alive, I keep thinking of something Jesus said. “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. Truly, truly I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.” God is always speaking to us. If we look closely we can see truth in unexpected places. These seeds we planted less than a week ago were just tiny dried up kernels. Small, hard and easily lost. Until planted and nurtured and watered, with the sun shining on them: life. What was dead came to life and literally transformed from something small and insignificant into something lush, green and growing, with the tiny promise of beauty growing in the bud. The seed shows us how death can produce life. Jesus died and was raised to life so that we can also be raised to life even though we die. We believe this and we have confidence in what Jesus accomplished and what God promises. Our transformation begins here and is complete in eternal life. Death is not the end. It’s the start. The seed proves that. But don’t we struggle? Just like that little green sprout still has it’s dead shell stuck to it. The shell can’t stop the seed’s transformation but it’s still there. And eventually that dead shell will fall away and what remains will bloom in full glory. But for now it’s both/and. Shell and seedling. Evidence of growth and the promise of glory while the shell still hangs on. But eventually the new growth will completely discard the shell that confined it. The shell no longer has power over the seedling. It will grow, blossom and bloom. It will bear fruit. And it will be glorious. #deepthoughts #easterthoughts #deathtolife #devotional #enneagram4

Randomly found a treasure trove of old photos in google pics I have not seen in years! Some of these are engagement photos from 2005! My hot husband hasn’t changed a bit! 🥰🥰🥰

There’s a bit of type A in me that is having a very hard time walking away from this!!! #1000piecesofmyheart #cinqueterre #idratherbeinitaly

What a fun day @classical_conversations! We had some visitors from the Memphis Symphony Orchestra perform while a fellow mom read a story aloud. The pages of the book are pictured on the screen above. It was great! Such a neat experience. Many thanks to @memphissymphonyorchestra string quartet for sharing your gifts with us. The kids were full of questions and we may have more than a few aspiring musicians among us! #myccday #classicalconversations #thisishomeschool
