Galatians 6:7,8
Amplifed….
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked (he will not allow himself to be ridiculed, nor treated with contempt nor allow his precepts to be scornfully set aside); for whatever a man sows, this and this only is what he will reap.
For the one who sows to his flesh (his sinful capacity, his worldliness, his disgraceful impulses) will reap from the flesh ruin and destruction, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
*** THINK OF THIS IN TERMS OF TWO GARDEN PLOTS THAT ARE READY FOR PLANTING. ONE IS LABELED—-FLESH
AND ONE IS LABELED—-SPIRIT. ***
*** OUR WORDS ACTIONS, PRIORITIES AND CHOICES WE MAKE ARE OUR SEEDS WE PLANT FOR OUR HARVEST. ***
*** THROUGH GOD’S SON, JESUS CHRIST, WE ARE GIVEN THE ABILITY TO SOW GOOD SEED “IN THE SPIRIT”. ***
*** YOU WILL REAP ONLY WHAT YOU HAVE PLANTED. THAT IS GOD’S LAW OF SOWING AND REAPING. ***
*** THE GARDEN LABELED—-FLESH WILL BRING IN IT’S FRUIT OF….DISCORD, CONFUSION, SICKNESS, HATE, DIVORCE, BROKEN HOME, FRUSTRATION, REGRET, AND DEATH ! ***
*** THE GARDEN LABELED—-SPIRIT WILL BRING FORTH THE FRUIT OF….LOVE, JOY, PEACE, STRONG MARRIAGE AND FAMILY. IT HAS GOOD HEALTH WITH REAL PURPOSE FOR YOUR LIFE. ANSWERED PRAYERS WITH REAL HOPE IN YOUR FUTURE. IT ALL LEADS TO ETERNAL LIFE WITH GOD ! ***
*** THERE IS FORGIVENESS FOR BAD SEEDS YOU HAVE PLANTED ! JESUS CHRIST CAN HELP YOU PLANT GOOD SEEDS TO SPRING UP IN YOUR HOME ! ***
*** THINK ABOUT WHAT KIND OF HARVEST YOU WANT AND PLANT YOUR SEEDS ! ***
"THE place for you to grow in grace."
