For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Sprit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary. Galatians 6:8-9
Would you consider
the various aspects of your life stable, in good standing by today’s standard
of living? A good paying job provides financial resources to have nice things
and to live a comfortable life. Those are all good and well, and quite
honestly, God most likely had His hand in your circumstances that has permitted
you to live a comfortable lifestyle. The question is, what have you done to
return some of His blessings?
It’s very easy to
get caught up in the stuff of this world. Every form of entertainment is out
there, just waiting to receive your financial support. But the truth is, it
only lasts as long as your enjoyment of that pursuit or until it wears out. Like
most things, they come and go and only provide a memory.
Today’s passage provides
a positive investment that offers eternal rewards and they never wear out. When
you invest your time, financial resources and pursue God’s calling for your life,
your focus on worldly things becomes less important and you begin to see the
real purpose for your existence. God doesn’t expect you to have a boring life.
He wants you to get the most out of life, but with the right focus, the right perspective,
so you will find fulfilment in His blessings. And those blessings never disappoint
but feed your soul to desire more of His goodness.
This world and the things
in it are suspectable to corruption and failure. Invest yourself in the Lord
and you’ll find eternal rewards waiting on you as you enter the gates of Heaven
one day! God bless!
