Good morning beloved, happy Tuesday,
“And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”
(Galatians 6:9).
Does it ever seem that others don’t notice your efforts at doing good or they don’t appreciate them? It can be discouraging, disappointing, and disheartening. But we must ask ourselves, ‘Who am I doing this for?’
Scripture tells that whatever we do for others, we do for the Lord Jesus Himself. This in itself should keep us going. He sees all we do and will reward us. Others may not see what we do and they may not appreciate what we do for them.
Paul tells us not to grow weary in doing good and we shall reap if we do not lose heart. In Galatians 6:7-9, Paul uses the word reap three times. It is an agricultural term. Before the farmer can reap the crops he must sow the seed. He does his part but God makes the sun gives them light, the the rain to water them.
This should be a constant reminder that God has put us here on the earth to good and be a blessing. Ephesians 2:10 says, “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”
Someone once said, “We are not saved by good works, but we are saved for good works.” It is our mission, our ministry. It is a mission of mercy and a labor of love.
Have a blessed day going good and leaving the results in God’s hands. Stay safe and healthy.
Every day there opportunities to do good in every way; let’s seize them while we still have the chance today.
