} to Harvest.

So many times throughout our childhood into our young adult and adult life we have heard the saying you reap what you sow. But have you ever really sat back and thought about what that really means. Who here likes to go out to the garden and get some fresh tomatoes, corn on the cob, or cucumbers and just sit down and enjoy how great they taste??? Well how well do you think your garden would do if you went out in the spring took a couple hands full of seed closed our eyes and threw them across the garden? Not to go back another day to tend to the garden to racking, or watering, or anything. What kind of crop are we going to have how is our garden going to look come time for h ?

When we lust after temporary pleasures such as sexual immortality, alcohol, drugs, and money we are setting ourselves up to reap temporary satisfaction here on earth and nowhere else. Galatians 5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, (20) Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, (21) Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Paul could have just stopped at love, Because God is Love. But no he went on to give us great detail of the characteristics of sowing in the spirit. And by abiding in Christ and sowing a life pleasing unto Him what shall we Reap, Everlasting Life.
