Spiritual Geotaxis and Phototaxis

Real Dudes,
​The other night I was laying in bed and my mind was racing. I don’t recall how this question popped into my head, but I got to thinking “How does a seed that you plant in the ground know which way to grow? I mean, it’s just tossed into the ground and then covered up, so in the dark, how can it really know which way is up/above dirt?” After doing a little research, here’s what I found.
In one article, the author teaches us that “All plants can sense the direction of the gravitational field and orientate themselves accordingly. This is called geotaxis. In mature plants, phototaxis (growing towards the light source) overrides the gravitational impulse for the stalk and leaves, but the roots – and the seed while it is underground – rely on gravity for orientation.There are two theories to explain this mechanism. It could be that the protoplasm (the living substance inside a cell) exerts greater pressure on the cell walls at the bottom of the seed. Or it may be that starch grains within the cells settle at the base. One or both of these cues influence the production of plant growth hormones that cause the plant to ‘steer’ as it grows.” https://www.discoverwildlife.com/plant-facts/how-do-seeds-know-which-way-is-up
Isn’t it fascinating how God created all things…including a seed. For a seed it’s natural for it to sense the pull and get oriented, and then in time move and grow towards the light source.
What application can we pull from this? According to the verses below, Jesus is The Light source we all should be drawn to / gravitated towards and growing up in…maturing in…a type of spiritual geotaxis and spiritual phototaxis. As we grow in Him, we then can reflect His light onto others, so they too can grow in and towards Him. So they too can have life and have it more abundantly. In John 8:12 (NLT) we read that “Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, ‘I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.’”
Please take the time to check out the rest of the passages below. Men, let’s continue being drawn to The Light even in the midst of a dark world. Let’s continue maturing in The Light. And let’s continue sharing The Light with others as well. 
Practicing His Presence,

Matthew 5:14 You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.

John 1:4 In Him was life, and that life was the light of men.

John 3:19 And this is the verdict: The Light has come into the world, but men loved the darkness rather than the Light because their deeds were evil.

John 9:5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

John 12:35 Then Jesus told them, "For a little while longer, the Light will be among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that darkness will not overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.

John 12:36 While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of light." After Jesus had spoken these things, He went away and was hidden from them.

John 12:46 I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in Me should remain in darkness. 

2 Peter 3:18 (NLT) Rather, you must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. All glory to him, both now and forever! Amen.

John 10:10 (ESV) The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.
