But someone may ask, "How will the dead be raised? What kind of bodies will they have?"

1 Corinthians 15:35 NLT

Ever wondered how this works? 

What a foolish question! When you put a seed into the ground, it doesn't grow into a plant unless it dies first. And what you put in the ground is not the plant that will grow, but only a bare seed of wheat or whatever you are planting. Then God gives it the new body he wants it to have.

1 Corinthians 15:36-38 NLT

If only the seed could see what it's going to become when it grows into the plant God envisioned it to be. 

That seems to be the picture for us, that somehow out of the seed of the life we have, something else is going to become. 

When God gives us the new body he wants us to have. 

If we could ask the seed to imagine what it's going to grow into, it would have no idea, no concept of the plant, the tree, the flower, the fruit, the shade, the shape, the size, the colour it will become. 

If you could ask the seed waiting in the dark to be planted to imagine the world in which it will flourish and thrive in, what would it say?

It seems that there's not just more in this life, but the there'll be an unfolding of life on a whole new level to come...
