"Seed Sowing"

A Blast From The Word
By Sandra Rhynes

“Seed Sowing”

James 3:18
Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

Have you ever planted green bean seeds and when those tiny little plants appeared they were squash? Of course not! You reap what you sow right? Right. What do you plant in your garden of life? Here are some things you can plant and some things you shouldn’t.

1. Gossip or Truth and Wisdom
2. Hate or Love
3. Meanness or Kindness
4. Sadness or Joy
5. Strife or Peace
6. Short of Patience or Longsuffering
7. Roughness or Gentleness
8. Bad Spirit or Goodness
9. Doubt or Faith
10. A Strong Will or Meekness
11. Excessiveness or Temperance

You know, it doesn’t matter where you are: school, work, vacation, (nobody knows you on vacation, right?) or at home, you still reap what you sow.

Say: Jesus, my Loving Savior, instill in me your precepts and values. Help me to set Your example everywhere I go and with everyone I meet. Thank You, Lord for your Loving Kindness, which is better than life itself. Amen
