In everything that we do and are we plant seeds. Seeds contain life. God created them to reproduce what they are, and the life in a seed should be treasured. There was a certain Sower that went out to sow His seed.... May we cultivate in our hearts the good earth so that what is sown may grow, or what is about to be sown will be able to take root deeply. A GOOD seed should be treasured!

The Trouble with Creative Minds
The trouble with creative minds is that they are always thinking. These are always processing whatever they see and hear and do and adding it to various categories of experience and thought to synergize it and synthesize it with other elements of to fix problems, invent, or express, usually a combination of all three. The trouble with these minds is that they rule and whenever a project needs doing, to complete the task in the mind may be more important that finishing it outwardly, so many projects may be left undone for the brain is flying to the next project. So often, the trouble with creative minds is often they don't turn off. They don't shut down when the body says it is time for bed. They don't go where you tell them to go. Paul said in the Bible, that the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the spirit is life and peace, Romans 8:6. While creative minds create with passionate energy, they need the exercise and discipline of training, and the only successful training for the mind to give it life and peace is the experience God's spirit in our spirit. The way to get the Spirit in our spirit is to call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ! Romans 10:13 says that, "Whoever calls on the Lord will be saved." The trouble with the mind is it not yet full of the spirit. Ephesians 4:23, "Be renewed in the spirit of your mind."
