"Seed to the Sower" by Gresha Schuilling: Open Hands Unlock God's Abundance


What if your giving is meant to multiply? 

A farmer never plants his last seed. He knows the harvest depends on what he’s willing to release into the ground. Gresha Schuilling captures that picture in “Seed to the Sower,” singing, “I won’t hold what You intended // To be planted when I sow.” God doesn’t just meet our needs. He hands us seed with a purpose attached to it. What we do with that seed determines whether it multiplies or sits untouched in a drawer. 

Gresha Schuilling - Seed to the SowerThe apostle Paul writes about this principle in 2 Corinthians 9:10–11: “He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness. You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way.” 

Notice the order here. God supplies first. He multiplies second. Your job is in between those two actions — you release what you’ve been given. Think about the following question. Why do so many of us grip our resources so tightly? Fear whispers that scarcity is coming, and when that’s the only voice we’re listening to, we hoard instead of giving. But hoarded seed will never become a harvest. It just sits there in the corner / in your drawer, doing nothing, and worst-case… it may even rot away! 

Here’s a challenge for you today: Give something away before you feel ready. Money, time, encouragement — pick one and release it without trying to calculate the return. Watch what happens when you trust the Source instead of the supply. Your generosity becomes a doorway for God’s abundance to reach people you’ll never meet, and He does it in a manner that is much more effective than we could ever accomplish on our own. 

Give “Seed to the Sower” a listen while you consider what seed you’re holding back. Then sing along with the truth that Gresha declares: “All I have begins with You // The Source of everything.”

(Related scripture: 2 Corinthians 9:6; 2 Corinthians 9:8; Philippians 4:19)

Background:

God supplies what we need and gives seed to be sown, then multiplies what is released and increases its fruit. His abundance forms generous hearts and reaches beyond us, producing thanksgiving and glory to Him.

"In Awe of You" by True Vine: Let the Heavens Teach You to Worship

When did you last stop and remember who God is? Life moves fast, doesn’t it? Bills pile up, seasons shift, and our attention drifts toward whatever crisis is loudest that day. True Vine wrote “In Awe of You” to interrupt that drift. The song pulls our eyes off our circumstances and points them back to God Himself — not what He’s done for us lately, but who He simply is. Drawing from the names Scripture gives Him — Elohim, Adonai, El Shaddai, the Great I Am — the lyrics declare, “Who compares to You?” That’s not a rhetorical flourish. It’s an honest question worth sitting with. Think about the weight in a name like El Shaddai, God Almighty, or Adonai, Lord and Master. These aren’t titles pulled from nowhere. Each of His names is a testimony. Testimonies by people who have witnessed how He provided, protected, and stayed faithful when nothing else proved to be steady. The lyrics call Him “Faithful and True,” and the bridge declares: “The heavens are roaring, declaring Your glory.” This...

"I Love to Praise Your Name" by Chrystal: Worship That Survives the Storm

A declaration of consistent devotion and faithfulness to God (by Jasper Tan) Chrystal Williams-Alberty’s “I Love to Praise Your Name” is a beautiful and heartfelt contemporary praise and worship song. The song focuses on our devotion and adoration to our God. The lyrics are simple but deep in expression. Reminding us that to worship God is a lifelong commitment, and we should always give our gratitude and faithfulness to our loving God. The song shares a message that is similar to Psalm 34:1 —  “I will bless the LORD at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.” Chrystal came up with the song from her own personal experiences where she wants to praise God even in her most difficult times. This shows us that praising God isn’t just when things are going our way, but even in the most trying times; our devotion and faithfulness to him must remain constant. This is what makes this song beautiful because it came from a place of sincerity and raw honesty. Chrystal shows her unw...

"Great Is Thy Faithfulness" by Gethsemane Instrumental: Finding Steady Ground in the Storm

God’s mercies are new every morning — do you notice? “Great Is Thy Faithfulness” by Gethsemane Instrumental is one of the tracks in John Long’s upcoming instrumental project. Gethsemane Instrumental is a space for prayer, a quiet room where listeners can sit with Jesus without distraction. Hardships visited John more than once. He also went through Ministry seasons that tested him in ways that could have hollowed him out. But something kept pulling John back to the same conviction: “He is faithful.” Not faithful when convenient. Not faithful in the easy seasons only. Faithful “through every storm,” standing “unmoved and unwavering” while everything around him shifted. “Great Is Thy Faithfulness” is the first single off John’s upcoming Hymns Devotional Vol. 2 project. This song has been a staple song for him throughout his entire walk with Jesus.  That kind of steadiness isn’t new. Thomas Chisholm penned the original song in 1923, sitting in Baldwin City, Kansas, worn down by frai...
