Invest in the things that matter!
Invest in the things that matter!
Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another. For each one shall bear his own load.
Let him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches.
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.

Youg will reap what you sow. What are you sowing? If you want love are you sowing love? If you want peace are you sowing peace?
Hosea 8:7 ““They sow the wind, And reap the whirlwind. The stalk has no bud; It shall never produce meal. If it should produce, Aliens would swallow it up.”
Job 4:8 “Even as I have seen, Those who plow iniquity And sow trouble reap the same.”
2. Sow generously: One moment of love does not overturn years of bitterness.
2 Corinthians 9:6 “But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.”
3. Do not sow in fear- sow in faith:
Ecclesiastes 11:4-6 “He who observes the wind will not sow, And he who regards the clouds will not reap. As you do not know what is the way of the wind, Or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child, So you do not know the works of God who makes everything. In the morning sow your seed, And in the evening do not withhold your hand; For you do not know which will prosper, Either this or that, Or whether both alike will be good.”
What-ifs
4. Sow in sacriifice:
1 Corinthians 15:35-36 “But someone will say, “How are the dead raised up? And with what body do they come?” Foolish one, what you sow is not made alive unless it dies.”
5. The challenge of sowing in the Kingdom is always worth it.
Psalm 126:5 “Those who sow in tears Shall reap in joy.”
Good relationships don’t just happen. You have to sow what you want into them.
A lot of us have been wanting love, but sowing bitterness and resentment!
