It's not
enough to "believe”, but it’s a good start!
Belief is
the seed of hope,
Given by the author of hope; the author of life:
It’s in there.
Yet we are
given our days to cultivate this seed in our garden of life.
Though many
seasons and days; rising early; protecting the young seedling; helping it bear
the most fruit possible.
Through long
days; though sickness; through many storms and droughts.
Through bountiful, rich days.
Like farmers
who believe that by feeding their stock and cultivating their fields they will
get a yield that serves them and their families well,
So we (have the
opportunity to) cultivate our seeds of hope by cultivating our belief: daily; doggedly; joyfully, consistently.
We persevere in our belief so that our hope
will grow through many a season; up from oft times unforgiving ground. And we celebrate at harvest that our crop of
hope, from the seeds of belief that were planted within us, feeds the most
vulnerable among us.
