The Love Seed you must plant.
Are you in a relationship? Do you plan starting one soon? Do you intend marrying soon? Are you married? You need to read this!
Here is my definition of Love seed, i call love seed a grain or an embryonic substance enclosed in a covering called heart, it has the ability to grow, germinate, evolve and sprout. Other people's life is the soil where it could grow. But the heart where it comes from controls it. Love seed has the ability to give back tremendous, immense, enormous, and great harvest to the planter.
If there is anyway you can touch God's heart with your relationship, it is by your love seed. I learnt this love tradition from a friend some years ago. Come with me, let me tell you!
Ola and his girlfriend (Caroline), now wife, had dated for quite a number of years before they got married, and there was something they used to do when they were still dating, they still do it now. When new month starts, they would both contribute money together, buy things and give it out to the orphanage as a "love seed".
To be frank and candid, I never got the point the first time I heard about it, i was like while every month? Who
does that? What if an unpalatable situation happens tomorrow and you guys ended up ending the relationship? Aren't you going to lose? It made little or no sense to me; I did not understand the arithmetics behind the things they were buying to help the orphans, and the money they were giving to them, until they explained to me the benefits attached to it.
I will break this down so that you can understand it very well.
What they do first is that they would contribute money together as a love seed to the orphans. And they would name the seed based on their love theme for the month. Sometimes it could be "forever together", and another time it is "God is blessing our upcoming home". Then they would pray over it together and decide the orphanage the seed would go to for that month. And sometimes, they give it out to the needy who are not even orphans. I could remember there was a time they had to register Exam for two students who would have missed their final exams due to financial challenges. He communicated his girlfriend and they both agreed to help the students
They registered the exam for them, and the students were able to come out in flying colours in the examination. Just Imagine the huge and enormous Blessings that these intended couple will yield in their relationship, and the kind of marriage they are aiming at.
Ola an Engineer by profession married Caroline after she finished from the law school, and they are now blessed with two children, a boy and a girl. What is even more amazing is the fact that they both got good jobs that pay well and their jobs allow them home early to spend time with their family. Their was a particular month they named their
love seed "home early.” It is funny, right? It is really marvellous how the love seed they had planted years back now yielded great and pleasant harvest for them. Even as they are in marriage now, they never stopped their love seed by helping others, they keep stretching the hands of help to other, and God keeps blessing tremendously in return.
The tradition they held to when they were dating turned a culture in their marriage. What i have observed is that, it really pays to help others, you aren't going to lose anything, rather, you gain back in many folds. You gain back hugely, vastly, and eminently. It's good to help!
