[prayersanddevotions]

O Mystery,

there are seeds in the dark earth

I do not understand.

Year after year I watch and wait,

wondering what roots take hold,

what unseen sprout reaches upward

in silence.

If the seed is of love,

let it rise in beauty.

If the seed is of harm,

let me turn the soil and plant anew.

Teach me patience with hidden seasons,

courage to face uncertain harvests,

and wisdom to sow only what brings life.

May the strange seed of my being

grow toward light,

whatever the season,

whatever the soil.

Amen.
