The Growing Seed

Markos 4:26–29
kingdomgrowthpatience
What Yeshua is saying

A man scatters seed and sleeps; the earth produces grain by itself — first the blade, then the head, then the full grain — and at harvest he puts in the sickle.

The explanation

The Kingdom grows by powers the farmer does not control. Yeshua relieves the disciples of the burden of forcing growth. Sow the seed; sleep; rise; the earth, by His design, brings forth. Harvest comes at the time He sets.
