“Our vision is so small compared to the Lord’s. Where we imagine a hole in the ground—a hole that we might not even get to see filled with water—He sees a haven for the birds and cattle, a garden in the desert. The growth of the Kingdom is largely mysterious to us, just as Jesus told us it would be. ‘A man scatters seed on the ground. Night and day, whether he sleeps or gets up, the seed sprouts and grows, though he does not know how'” (Mark 4:26,27). —Malcolm Hunter
