Conversation on Psalms 1-3

Sowing Joy

Sowing joy


"Where there is sadness (let me sow), joy."

I do not know every sadness of humanity, Lord.
"Man of Sorrows, what a name for the Son of God, who came ..."
I do not know.
Thou knowest.

Each heart knows its own sadness, you have told us ...
And I believe for I have received the gits of sadness ...
In the dark,
In the night,
In the bitter cold
and chilly wind.

And I have sat and stood and walked among to sad and lonely people ...
As You have and do and will and so ...

I know, we are not alone.
I am not alone.
They are not alone, nor can we ever be.

Are these seeds in my hand?
Seeds of joy?

Let them sow them Lord. I do not know how seeds work.
Not really.
They contain so much information that we do not perceive.
They carry potential we cannot conceive.

But with every seed, I believe.
I believe.
I believe.

Where there is sadness, today, Lord, today,
Let me sow joy.
May I live joy and choose joy and give joy
In the Name of the Man of Joy,
Amen and Amen.
