Reaping the Harvest...


Galatians 6:9 (MSG)

So let's not allow ourselves to get fatigued doing good. At the right time we will harvest a good crop if we don't give up, or quit. Right now, therefore, every time we get the chance, let us work for the benefit of all, starting with the people closest to us in the community of faith.

Sometimes it can be a bit overwhelming to do what is right in the sight of God as compared to what goes on in the world today. It can even be discouraging to continue to do so and not receive any thanks, recognition, promotion or advancement, but in Galatians, Paul gives us a much different approach. See as Christians, we are supposed to live by faith if we are just, and in doing so, like Paul, we are supposed to keep on doing good and trusting in the Lord our God for the results, and lead not to our own understanding or interpretation of what they should be, because in due time, God's perfect timing, we shall reap a harvest of blessings if we faint not!
