The Gift of Growth

The Season of Gift-Giving: Gifts That Nourish

Gift Idea #5: Seeds of Growth

Let’s plant growth this holiday season with seeds.
Let’s offer nourishment and fruit, vegetables, or herbs—each one a reminder that God brings increase in due time.

The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed… though it is the smallest, it grows into the largest of garden plants.
— Matthew 13:31–32

Growth is sacred. It is daily, steady, and often unseen until it blossoms. Growth reminds us that God is at work. Even if it starts tiny. The Spirit whispers, keep going. Keep growing. God will tend to it and bring forth fruit.

Growth reminds us all that:

Nourishment comes from God.
Small seeds can lead to abundance.
We are becoming what we created to be.

Materials

• Small packet of food seeds (beans, herbs, grains)
• Small envelope, pouch, or planter
• Pen or marker
• Optional: ribbon, sticker, or recipe card

Instructions

1. Place the seed packet in the envelope, pouch, or planter.
2. Add a note: “Plant these seeds as a reminder that growth is ongoing even if we can’t see it. Watch as nature unfolds the harvest.”
3. Seal with care and, if desired, decorate.

Sample Notes

• “Growth starts small but ends in nourishing the body and soul.
• “Plant, tend, and trust: God does the rest.”
• “These seeds remind us that growth is a gift of patience.”

Let this gift be a blessing.
A nourishment.
A sacred whisper that says, “You are becoming.”

Let’s Offer the Gift of Growth
to Ourselves & to Others.
