Seeds of the kingdom

You are seeds of the Kingdom

planted in history.

You are good

and tender,

full of life.

I hold you in my hand,

I rock you and cherish you,

and so I cast you into the world:

Go forth!

 

Do not be afraid

of storms nor droughts,

of footsteps nor thorns.

Drink from the poor

and be soaked by my dew.

 

Bear fruit,

burst forth,

do not remain buried.

Blossom

and give fruit.

Let yourselves be swayed by the wind.

 

Let every traveler

who walks along paths and roads,

seeking or lost,

upon seeing you,

feel a leap in their heart

and be able to love you.

You are seeds of my Kingdom!

 

We are seeds of your Kingdom!
