Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness. 2 Corinthians 9:10

 

If you’ve ever planted a garden, or simply a few plants, you know in a short while, from the soil, grows the plant that started out as a small seed. Preparing the soil took some time, but the effort was worth it for the plant to grow properly and produce either flowers or something edible. From seed to your benefit, God caused it to grow.

 

God also causes something else to grow, His children. Someone was placed in your life to bring you into the fold, to open your eyes to the need of a loving Savior. With a tug of the spirit, you accepted His free offer of salvation, forgiveness of sins, and yielded a fruitful soul, meant to bring blessings to God.

 

Then Jesus said: “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the Harvest to send out laborers into His harvest. Luke 10:2

 

God has equipped you with His Holy Spirit, and desires for you to share the gospel truth to a lost and dying world. When you do so for the Lord, He blesses the person you touched and causes them to come to know Him in a personal way (1 Corinthians 3:7). Nothing you do can change that life, but only God. You simply plant the seed and let God do the work.

 

What’s holding you back from sharing your faith with someone? You can’t mess up by simply sharing the truth and what’s happened in your life. By your simple words of faith and spiritual transformation, you can plant the seeds of faith and let God yield the harvest of your efforts. God bless!
