The seeds that cost you the most produce the harvests that change you the most. Anyone can sow what’s left over. But God looks at the seed that comes from the place of sacrifice — the place where giving means trusting Him more than your own strength.

The principle is clear — if you want to see increase, you must keep the cycle of sowing alive. But in moments of fear, scarcity, or impatience, we sometimes consume what we were meant to plant. We spend what we should have sown. We hoard what we should have handed over. And in doing so, we short-circuit our own blessing.
