Plant Purposefully
 

Plant Purposefully

Do not be deceived and deluded and misled; God will not allow Himself to be sneered at(scorned, disdained, or mocked by mere pretensions or professions, or by His precepts being set aside). [He inevitably deludes himself who attempts to delude God.] For whatever a man sows, that and that only is what he will reap.
—Galatians 6:7

Choose carefully what you sow through your words and actions, and plant only what you want to reap: “For he who sows to his own flesh (lower nature, sensuality) will from the flesh reap decay and ruin and destruction, but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life” (Galatians 6:8).

Everything you do, all day long, is an opportunity to sow good seeds, or bad ones, that can drastically change things in your life. Get an early start in sowing only what you want to come back to you.
