Peacemakers who
sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.
- James 3:18 (NIV)
Harvest season typically begins in late September or early October for those who farm and grow crops outdoors. As autumn approaches and the weather cools, farmers cut and collect their crops, preparing them for use. But if a farmer didn’t plant good seeds in the spring, a good harvest in the fall is unlikely.
The same principle applies to our lives. If we spend our time being unkind or hurtful, we might think we have many friends, but when challenges arise—and they will—there may be no one there to support us. On the other hand, if we invest our time in caring for others, doing good, and showing love, we’ll find a community ready to stand by us when life’s storms come.
We all have a choice: we can plant seeds of anger, selfishness, and negativity, and reap a harvest of bitterness and disappointment. Or, we can plant seeds of humility, kindness, faith, and love, and enjoy a bountiful harvest of peace and fulfillment.
