A Prayer to the Sower

Mark 4:3, "Listen! A sower went out to sow"

Mark 4:8-9, "And other seed fell onto good soil and produce grain, growing up and increasing and yielding thrity-fold and sixty fold and a hundred fold. And he said, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."

Wow! I did not expect to survive yesterday emotional despair, let alone return to a joyful attitude to sit in front of the father again.

I do still feel the tension inside my face. I mean it could just be sinuses or the fact I am still holding back some anger.  

But after reading Mark 4 about the sower I realized a few different things.

1. You have to have a heart ready to listen to get to a place to be okay with celibacy.
2. That you do reap what you sow. I want to sow healthy choices so that I can reap great harvests of great relationships.
3. That it can be a season of struggle but there are seasons where the heart listens.

Lord,
Soften my heart
Help me find peace
Help me awaken a patient spirit
Help me trust you more and more each day,
Love your Son,
Aaron
