Be A Sower



"The sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell beside the road, and it was trampled under food and the birds of the air ate it up.  Other seed fell on rocky soil, and as soon as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.  Other seed fell among the thorns; and the thorns grew up with it and choked it out.  Other seed fell into the good soil, and grew up, and produced a crop a hundred times as great."  As He said these things, He would call out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."  Luke 8:5-8

God tells us in His Word to tell others about the good news of His Son Jesus Christ.  He also tells us to be sowers of kindness.  Do not hesitate to share the good news with others and as you do you will also be sowers of kind words.  You never know when someone may need to hear the words God has laid on your heart to share with them.

Over the years of my life I have found that whenever a persons name comes to mind to stop, say a prayer and give them a phone call for God placed their name in my mind for a reason.

Be a sower of seeds...

Bringing in the Sheaves
by Knowles Shaw

Sowing in the morning, sowing seeds of kindness,
Sowing in the noontide and the dewy eve;
Waiting for the harvest, and the time of reaping,
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.

Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves,
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves;
Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves,
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.

Sowing in the sunshine, sowing in the shadows,
Fearing neither clouds nor winter's chilling breeze;
By and by, the harvest and the labor ended,
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.

Going forth with weeping, sowing for the Master,
Tho', the loss sustained, our spirit often grieves;
When our weepings over, He will bid us welcome,
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.
