It's the Law

Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
1st Corinthians 3:8 NKJV

Sometimes, my designated time with the Lord is a battle of just trying to stay focused. The enemy of my soul likes to try to discourage me in that.

"You call yourself a Christian, you can't even stay focused."
"How many times are you going to read that before you get it? Why bother?"
"If you really loved God, you wouldn't have these issues."

I have learned to stop and redirect my thoughts.

"Father, I am Your child. I am here to pay attention to YOUR Word. Help me."
"Father, As many times as it takes."
"Father, I know You really love me. Teach me how to really love You. I want to love You more."

We know that what we harvest depends on what seeds were planted. We know about bad seed, no seed, etc. What I feel I re-learned this morning is that the crops may be different - bumper, buffer, cover - but there will ALWAYS be a harvest time. Even if I sit in my quiet time and only plant ONE good seed. That seed will produce. And if I do the same thing the next day, that is another good seed that will produce. God shall supply all our needs. You get the picture.

In 2nd Corinthians 9:10-11, we read, Now he [God] who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.

Galatians 6:9 NKJV, And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. There are no instant harvests, but it's the law of sowing and reaping. Rest assured, the harvest WILL come.

Prayer:

Father,
           Thank You for Your Word. Thank You for all the answers that You provide in it. Thank You for loving us and multiplying Yourself to us in so many ways! We know Your seeds are always good and will always produce. We pray for a bumper crop, Father, in Jesus' Name. Amen
