A seed planted in soil must be buried and completely hidden from light. It must be pressed beneath the weight of dirt. In that burial, in that crushing, it dies to what it was, and begins to awaken to what it is becoming. Something greater is being built in the dark.
In our lives, the breaking in the darkness, beneath the weight of the “dirt” of this world, this is the death of our old self. Once this death of self takes place, the miraculous transformation begins. It is then you will break ground, reaching towards the Light, where the blessing is the harvest that comes later.
