“get” it
Wednesday July
10th, Galatians 6: 7-8 Don't be misled: No
one makes a fool of God. What a person plants, he will harvest. The person who
plants selfishness, ignoring the needs of others—ignoring God!—harvests a crop
of weeds. All he'll have to show for his life is weeds! But the one who plants
in response to God, letting God's Spirit do the growth work in him, harvests a
crop of real life, eternal life. That
real life, what we call eternal life is something that starts now and is
brought to perfection in the life to come.
Most of us spend our lives living and lunging in lots of directions
other than the one God has for us.
Sooner or later we will all “get” it, but for most, we “get” it after
most of this life is over. That is where
grace comes in. As my children get older
and off on their adult life, getting married, having kids etc., it is fun to
watch them start to “get” it. Sure would
be nice if God could watch more of us “getting” it. Most of us however spend too much of our
lives in that adolescence “it is all about me” phase. God is patient and kind, but think of what
you are missing.
