Blue and Silver Christmas Tree

There are papers sprawled out about,
multiple internet tabs open on the screen,
two of which are being directly used.

Reap what you sow,
if you don't plant you won't grow
so hop to it

Words that make plenty of sense
but filled with a deeper meaning,
one that must be earnestly sought after.

"Sow righteousness for yourselves,
reap the fruit of unfailing love, 
and break up your unplowed ground;
for it is time to seek the Lord,
until he comes
and showers his righteousness on you.
But you have planted wickedness,
you have reaped evil,
you have eaten the fruit of deception.
Because you have depended on your own strength
and on your many warriors,
the roar of battle will rise against your people
so that all your fortresses will be devastated--"
Hosea 10:12-14

"That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake. Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat int it, while all the people stood on the shore. Then he told them many things in parables, saying: "A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some feel on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, the plants where scorches, and they withered because they had no root. Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. Still other seed feel on good soul, where it produced a crop -- a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown. Whoever has ears, let them hear.""
(Matthew 13:1-9

Looks like a certain someone has some work to do,
and some deep thinking to do,
in order to figure out how to "plant".
