Ep. 169: Reaping a Bountiful Harvest — Devotion

Devotion on Christian Living, Galatians 6:8b. 2 pages.

… the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life (Galatians 6:8b).

In one of the many parables Jesus shared with His disciples, He used the example of a farmer to teach a lesson. We know that the task of the farmer is to go out and plant his seeds. Once in the ground, the seeds begin to grow and produce a crop for him to harvest. The Lord provides the harvest.

Like the farmer in the parable, our task is to be about sowing, namely, sowing the seed of God’s Word. When we take time to share His Word with others, many more have the opportunity to come to faith in Him as their Savior and have the assurance of reaping eternal life in heaven.
