The verse for the week is Galatians 6:9 which says, "Let us not become tired of doing good. At the right time we will gather a crop if we don't give up."
Sometimes it feels like we keep doing what is good without any reward or benefit, and everyone around us is not even trying to be good and it seems like they are the ones getting the rewards and the benefits!
It's like when a farmer plants a crop. He puts the tiny seed in the ground, and then everyday he waters it and cultivates it. Then one day, he finally gets that sweet, delicious corn, or those juicy, ripe tomatoes.
God will do the same thing in our lives. He told us not to become tired of doing good. To trust Him, don't give up, and He WILL pour out the blessings in your life!
He WILL give you the desires of your heart! Sometimes it might take a while, just like with that crop, but it's because God wants to give you the best.... he doesn't want you to settle for what seems good enough for right now, He wants to give you the perfect gift, the gift that was made in heaven just for you!

i really like this one . there are certain things in my life that i just want to settle for cause it sounds good for the moment & i know that i shouldnt just settle for things because GOd has a plan and things will end how he wants them to end. when you talk about the perfect gift at times it doesnt seem like it could be true but i know it is because God is so far beyond anything that i could imagine ; sometimes it feels like there is no reward for being the bigger person. sometimes its hard to see the rewards God gives us and this blog really reminds me of that . thanks again laura for doing these for us. i love them soooooooooooooo much ♥
this one is a really good one! i feel like this deffinatly pertains to my life right now because it seems that i am doing good things and nothing is really happening. i know that God has a plan and all but everything happens for a reason so you just have to believe in God && it is all in his hands and it will happen when you are ready for it in your life. it may not be when you want it but God knows when it is time! i love this Laura! ♥
