WHATEVER YOU SOW…GROWS
I am fully enamored
with the PRINCIPLE OF SOWING AND
REAPING because it is so applicable in every arena of
life. Here is a small sampling of relevant
scriptures. “While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest…shall not
cease.” (Genesis 8:22) “Whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap.” (Galatians
6:7b) These biblical wisdoms do not pertain exclusively to tithe and
offerings, which are due to God via our sense of appreciation and
covenant. Rather, they are part and parcel of our total life
experience.
To illustrate this
point, imagine you are standing at the edge of a pond with a rock in your hand.
You hurl the rock to the center of the pond with all the strength you can
muster. Naturally, it creates waves. Concentric circles
emerge from the spot your rock entered the water, eventually reaching every
side of the pond.
Let’s analyze what
happened. That pond was totally still and undisturbed prior to your
arrival. Then you did something – you threw a rock into the pond and
perturbed its peace and tranquility. In a word, your actions precipitated
a significant change in the pond environment, impacting its water and
banks. Think about it.
In life, whatever you
do…MATTERS. In life, whatever you sow…GROWS.
We should never see
ourselves as so small and inconsequential that the effects of what we do or say
are somehow minimal or negligible.
Make sure that the
next rock you cast into the pond of life is positive, peaceful and
productive. Someone, somewhere, will somehow be impacted. And
never assume that GOD is
not paying attention, even to the ‘smallest stones of life,’ because HE CARES so much for every one of
His children.
Sisters and brothers,
be continually blessed and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO
MEET YOUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
