good seeds

i'm all over that verse, John 12:24...
It's all deep and meaningful - and i always wanted to be the kind of person that bore good fruit for my Master.

²⁴ Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.

But it never occurred to me before how bad fruit is also full of seeds.  & the decaying poisonous fruit withers and falls to the ground, spilling seeds into willing soil.  All of a sudden i understood a little better how sometimes these generations long battles begin...

Those dang seeds. 

& in my minds eye, i see the vicious ugly seeds that fall, scatter and take root and start to grow.  i know what evil each tiny seed is capable of... & the thought of it is enough to fill me with despair...

i want to be done with it, Father!  Here, now... i want this finished!  Render each poison seed sterile... i know You're capable.  With dirt under my fingernails, i commit to digging out each one - and casting it aside for destruction.
