What do You Sow?

Galatians 6:7-10 ESV
Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. 8 For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. 9 And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. 10 So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.

We have all heard it said: “What you sow is what you reap.” Here is the verse an explanation that goes with that saying. If you work only to fill yourself the only reward you have is corruptible. If you labor to grow in the Lord your reward is eternal. You can even take this past just what you “work” for but where you spend your time. How much time is spent on “worrying?” And if that is what you are sowing, what do you reap from “worrying?”

Continuing with this same thought, what would be the way to turn from worrying and sow to the Spirit? How about seeking out the truths of God and how He protects and provides? And the same question on this aspect: what would you reap from seeking out the truths of God?

Now that is just one example. Are there other areas of your life that you spend more time “flesh-sowing” instead of “Spirit-sowing?” If so, can you find a way to turn them around? I guarantee that the Bible has every tool you need to do so. If you have trouble figuring out how, please seek the guidance from your minister/pastor. Or you can email me and I can help you with finding scriptures to learn and apply that combat whatever area of “flesh-sowing” you are bound to.
