. . . we did put all our seeds into the earth . . .
First Nephi. Chapter 18. Verse 24.
On the day that darkest in your life, just plant a seed.
Plant it with the hope and faith that it will meet a need.
A need that may not be relieved for longer than you think.
Your thoughtful act may save someone from slipping on the brink.
Plant all the seeds you’re given in this life and give no heed
To doubts or grief if one of them should turn into a weed.
Just plant with good intentions and a willing hand to find
Contentment in your sowing and a candid peace of mind.
And when your planting’s over, the abundance it creates
Will be a green wave pushing you to Heaven’s milky gates.
When I am planted in the earth, I hope my seed bag shows
No hoarding, but a scattering of all through joys and woes.
