Planting good seeds


A man will reap just the kind of crop he sows!
Experience teaches us that those who sow trouble will reap the same. "They have sown wind and they will reap the whirlwind" said the prophet. If people sow for their own wrong desires they will reap decay and spiritual death.
Instead the good man's reward lasts forever. If he plants the good things of the Spirit, he will reap the everlasting life which the Holy Spirit gives him. And let us not get tired of doing what is right, for after a while we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don't get discouraged and give up.
That is why whenever we can we should always be kind to everyone, especially to our mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, to the widows and orphans in our world.
It is possible to give away and become richer! It is also possible to hold on too tightly and lose everything. Yes, the generous person shall be rich! By watering others, he waters himself. If you give a little, you will get little. A farmer who plants just a few seeds will get only a small crop, but if he plants much, he will reap much.
