"The Sower and The Seed"

A BLAST FROM THE WORD
By Sandra Rhynes

“The Sower And The Seed”

Matthew 13:24-25
24 Another parable He put forth to them, saying: "The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field; 25 but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way.


Lets just say for a moment that we are the sower and the seed of course is the Word of God. I have asked myself a question. What kind of seed do I plant? Do I plant good seed or bad seed? Do I plant love, joy, gentleness, kindness, peace, longsuffering, meekness, faith and self control (sounds like good fruit, doesn’t it) or do I plant envy, strife, laziness, hatred, anger and lies? (sounds like rotten fruit, doesn’t it) Keep in mind; you reap what you sow. What do you want to reap in your life?

Today sow the good fruit….Heavenly Father, help me make the choice to plant good fruit into others. I don’t want to sow tares among Your people. With thanksgiving I pray this in Your name. Amen
