Dimes

"Elsie" by Cami Monet Webb
from The Schoolhouse

"This most generous God who gives seed...is more than extravagant with you. He gives you something you can then give away, which grows into full-formed lives, robust in God..." (2 Corinthians 9:10 The Message)



I found a dime yesterday. I found a dime a few days before that and another dime a few days before that. "Lord, what's up with the dimes?" I asked. "I'm listening, Lord Jesus! Please, teach me."

"Open My text book, Jill." 

Because a dime is with worth ten cents, I explored a few of the ten and tenth passages of the Old and New Testament and set up camp for a spell (as we say in the South) in 2 Corinthians, chapter 9, which teaches that God gives the seed, and He loves a cheerful sower. 

Through scattered dimes, Jesus reminded me to cheerfully keep sowing God-given seeds, of which I have four varieties: seeds of God's word, of prayers, children's storybooks, and money.

Got seeds, beloved? Sow them cheerfully and generously and watch God's garden grow!
