harvest

Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.

- James 3:18

 

Typically harvest season starts late September or early October for those farming and growing crops outside.

Before the weather changes and cools as autumn approaches, the crops are cut and collected, ready to be used for cooking and eating.

If a farmer did not plant good seeds in the spring, he is not likely to get a good harvest in the fall.

Did you know that it works that way with people too?

If you spend your time being hateful and mean, doing horrible things, you might think you have a lot of friends but when you fall off your mountain – and you will – there won’t be anyone to catch you as you tumble down. 

But if you spend your time caring for others, doing good works, loving and helping people then when storms come in your life you will have a tribe of people to help you stand against the wind and rain. 

We have a choice, we can plant seeds of hate, anger, selfishness, and evil and when the harvest comes we will reap failure, bitterness and jealousy or we can plant seeds of humility, charity, faith and love and bring in a bountiful harvest of peace and righteousness.

What are you planting?
