Poem: “The Silence Between Seeds”

A seed lies buried, cold, and still,
Yet underneath, there works God’s will.
The soil is dark, the wait is long,
But roots are growing firm and strong.

We fret, we doubt, we lose our peace,
Forgetting growth begins in cease.
Yet time refines what faith begins,
Till harvest bursts where death had been.

So trust the ground where dreams abide,
Though buried deep, they will not die.
For silence sings and patience leads,
To blooms that rise from silent seeds.

Reflection: Patiently Waiting

 “Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him.” — Psalm 37:7

Waiting is one of the hardest disciplines of faith. The silence between the promise and the fulfillment can feel endless, but it is there — in the waiting — that trust is proven.

When we can’t see what God is doing, He’s often doing the most. The seed beneath the soil must break before it can bloom; the caterpillar must struggle before the wings unfold. Waiting purifies our motives, deepens our dependence, and matures our vision.

Patience isn’t passivity — it’s quiet confidence that God’s timing is never wrong. Even when life pauses, Heaven still moves. So, rest in the pause. The promise is still alive.
