Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
– John 12:24-25
Our daughter Lena showed us a picture of her scare crow and her corn. I was like that is awesome how she showed us as it grew and her and her friend made a scare crow and the scare crow broke during the wind, but she was able to fix it.
In John 12:24-25 these verses teach that true life and eternal significance come through surrender, sacrifice, and faith. It’s a call to follow Jesus’ example of self-giving love. This is a profound passage where Jesus uses the metaphor of a grain of wheat to illustrate the principle of sacrifice leading to greater life and fruitfulness.
God will come along and fix our brokeness if we choose to let Him.
