You Reap What You Sow.......

When you hear that saying, what do you think of?

Through the years when I have heard this, people say this when referring to someone hurting another person or mistreating someone. You know, "He better stop doing her like that cause you know, what goes around comes around."or " She needs to stop treating people that way, cause she's going to reap that." I could keep going, we've all heard it.

Though this may be true for the negative things, it is also and even more so true for the positive things in our lives.

This is a note to encourage those of you whom have done good by people and don't feel as though their good is being reciprocated. I know that the bible gives us all these guidelines on how we should be:

Love your enemy
Give to the poor
Bless them that curse you
Forgive, forgive, forgive
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you
Love everyone
Feed the hungry

That is a lot! And that isn't even all! And in being a good Christian person in life and relationships is hard!! Most of the time people don't make it easy (your loved ones included!) My message is to keep doing good. God sees you! I understand what it is like to feel weary and tired of unrelenting people. I understand what its like to feel unappreciated. I totally understand when you want to say Forget it!!!! But remember, God sees you! God feels your pain and He knows your feelings. He is the one who said what you sow is what you will reap! Those were His words and since that is the case, He cannot lie! The good you do and have done will be returned to you! The awesome thing is though is when God returns it to you, it is sooooooo much better than when you gave it out!!!! You will get your good back!!!!!!!!

Until next time!
