I realized that I needed a big love in my heart. So I asked the Lord to fill me up with a big and passionate love for Him and others. It then occurred to the that
He has already sown in my heart His love and that my desire to present to Him a
sweet-smelling and tasty fruit of love is from the seeds of love He's sown in me.
I think the Parable the Sower Jesus taught the disciples about
refers to love as well as salvation. I once thought that the 'seeds' that Christ was speaking of were 'acts of evangelism' and to gather
souls for the Kingdom but now I see that is the ultimate result of
His love IS love. So today I know the love He has planted in my heart bears fruit of more love to give
back to Him. May He feast on me! Read Matt 13 1-9
But other fell into good ground,
and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixty-fold, some
thirty-fold. Matthew 13:8
