A seed with a promise

October 01, 2025 by Rev. Mona Scrivens

Think about that for a moment. A seed doesn’t look like much. It’s small, fragile, and easily overlooked. But within that tiny shell is the power to grow, multiply, and bear fruit far beyond what we could imagine.

Galatians 3:29 tells us: “If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.”

If you belong to Christ, that’s who you are—a seed of Abraham. You are part of a story that began thousands of years ago when God promised Abraham that his descendants would be a blessing to the nations. And now, through Christ, you carry that same promise.

Here’s the truth: you may not always see the fruit right away. Seeds take time. They need planting, watering, and waiting. But never underestimate what God can grow from one life surrendered to Christ. Your faith, your obedience, your love—it can ripple out in ways you may never know, blessing generations to come.

So today, remember: you are not insignificant. You are not forgotten. You are a seed of Abraham, rooted in the promises of God, and God specializes in bringing abundance out of what looks small. Who knows what He will grow through you?

Plant your faith. Trust the promise. And watch God bring forth a harvest!
