Sowing and Reaping

Today I am grateful for what I have! That does not mean I have everything I want, but it does mean that I am thankful for having all that I need.

God will provide for your needs according to how you position yourself. Our basic needs for food, clothing, and shelter are generally met. We can always find resources to help us with those things if we are in trouble.

I am talking about going well beyond basic needs. God says he will grant all the desires of our heart. Where is YOUR heart today?

If we are givers, then we shall receive. If we are generous, then we shall receive generosity.

The law of "sowing and reaping" rings true in our lives each day. You get....what you give.

If you plant corn in a field, do you not receive corn at harvest time? If you plan grass seed, do you not grow grass? Then why would you expect to receive anything different from what you have planted?

You cannot be greedy and expect others to give to you. You cannot be mean and expect kindness. You cannot be a thief and expect that "your stuff" is safe.

If I want more out of life...if I want to reap a harvest that is plentiful...if I want the desires of my heart to come to pass...then I must be a cheerful giver of goodness to the world.

More on the law of Sowing and Reaping later... Meditate on this. Think about what you have sown into the world and what you are receiving. You CAN change things for the better....start today!
