It felt good and a wave of relief swept over my heart as I scattered the seeds. This is a different kind of harvest. There's still more to coincider. I want to keep working. What else do I need to surrender in order to work and stay well? The answers will come. "For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul." Mat 16:26
