In 1 Corinthians 15:36-38, Paul writes this:

“…What you sow does not come to life unless it dies. And what you sow is not the body that is to be, but a bare kernel, perhaps of wheat or of some other grain. But God gives it a body as he has chosen, and to each kind of seed its own body.”

Life is something like being a seed. We’ll spend it in a dark place, nestled close to many others waiting to be sown. We barely even perceive our potential. All will eventually be sown and all will eventually die.

But some will grow, out of their death, new bodies that glory over the old and constantly long for the light of the sun.
