Planting and Reaping
“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.” (Galations 6:7)
If you plant forgiveness, You will reap reconciliation.
If you plant honesty, You will reap trust.
If you plant encouragement, You will reap godliness.
If you plant humility, You will reap greatness.
If you plant self-control, You will reap perseverance.
If you plant perseverance, You will reap victory.
If you plant patience, You will reap faith.
If you plant faith, You will reap miracles.
But…
If you plant dishonesty, You will reap distrust.
If you plant selfishness, You will reap loneliness.
If you plant pride, You will reap destruction.
If you plant envy, You will reap trouble.
If you plant laziness, You will reap stagnation.
If you plant bitterness, You will reap isolation.
If you plant sin, You will reap guilt.
So be careful what you plant now, It will determine what you will reap tomorrow.
“For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6 and to knowledge, self -control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; 7 and to godliness, mutual affection; and to muchtal affection, love.” (2 Peter 1:5-7)
