This is a true story about a soybean seed.
It was sent to the Rev. Robert H. Schuller from Ansley Mueller, a farmer in Pleasant Plains, Ohio, with the following note,
"I've been teaching the principle, 'Any fool can count the seeds in an apple. Only God can count the apples in one seed.”
And then he continued with a lesson that we all should have close at hand as a reminder to persevere.

"It
was 1977, Dr. Schuller, and I lost half my crop. It was a bad, bad
year. It was so wet I couldn't get half of it harvested and it didn't
develop. So, at the end of the year, in October, I would walk through
the fields and try to pick up a bushel here and a piece there.
Then, I saw standing by itself a most extraordinary, unusual looking soybean plant.
I walked over and I was shocked by its size and its good looks.
I went and carefully picked off the pods. There were 202 pods and I opened them and counted out 503 soybeans.
I took them home. I kept them in a pan all winter and they dried out.
The next spring they just seemed special to me.
In 1978 I took those 503 soybeans and I planted them in a little plot behind my house and when October came I harvested 32 pounds!
Thirty-two pounds! I dried them out in the winter and in 1979 I took those thirty-two pounds and I planted them on one acre and when October came, I harvested. I had 2,409 pounds and I planted them on sixty-eight acres, which was all the land I had available.
In October, just a year ago, I harvested twenty-one hundred bushels and cashed it out for fifteen thousand dollars!

Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty. (Proverbs 21:5).
Set your goals. Dream your dreams. And then when the wind blows adjust your sails accordingly.
Set your goals. Dream your dreams. And then when the wind blows adjust your sails accordingly.
Nor do this without a plan for to have no plan is to have a plan still.
Tomorrow will come whether you plan for it or not but if you plan you will find wonder instead of waste.

…“in the world of man” identities are stolen all the time. It happened to us two summers ago. Someone reached into my wife’s purse and stole her identity.
Went around proving they were her to a world that was more than willing to accept as fact what was obviously a lie. We straightened it out, but for a short time “the things that man looks at” created an identity crisis.
But with God? No identity theft will ever take place. He knows who we are, the good and the bad and the in-between. And He loves us despite what He sees rather than because. (ON WYRICK’S WRITINGS)
