Galatians 6:7-10

Dear Brethren,

Helping other people is a part of a Christian's life. Hebrews 13:16 reads, "But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased." In general, helping other people causes a person to feel good about what they have done. However, there are times when selfish and lazy people will abuse and take for granted a person's generosity. Such abuse can be quite painful to the person with a kind heart. When this happens, there is a temptation for the kindhearted person who is trying to do good to become disheartened and discouraged. No matter how many times a Christian may be emotionally injuried by other people abusing their good, the Christian must never grow weary in doing good.

Here is Galatians 6:7-10 presented for your consideration.

7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.

8 For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.

9 And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.

10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.

In Love,

John Duvall
