God decides what will grow and what will not. He plants the seeds of faith, hope, love, joy, and happiness in our lives. Who are we to say that this seed will grow and that will not? He plants the seed in your mind that in the early stages appears as a foolish dream, a lofty hope of success and happiness. That seed is His plan for you.
Matthew 13:32 "Though it is the smallest of all your seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and perch in its branches."
Only God decides which seeds will grow and which will wither or be eaten by the birds. Either way, each and every seed serves a purpose. You are a seed in God's plan for the world. You may appear to yourself and others as "pitted, dried up,and useless", but God is the great Sower of seeds.
He holds you in His hand today and sees all of your tomorrows. You may become the greatest or the smallest plant in His garden. However, it totally depends on how you water, fertilize and care for what He has created.
Right now God is holding you in His hand just like you held the seed. He closes his eyes and sees a vision of hope, success, happiness and as he fast forwards He can see the impact you will make on all the tomorrows you hold inside. The difference here is, God has given us the gift of choice. You are His seed and the gardener. How you grow depends on the choices you make, the care you give and your faith in His plan for you. You do your part and He will do His.
