Is Your Heart Good Soil for God’s Truth?
Jesus sat in a boat on the Sea of Galilee and told a simple farming story that still hits home today. In Mark 4, the seed is God’s Word and our hearts are the soil. Some stay hard, some are shallow, some get choked by worry and distraction, and some bear amazing fruit. How is God’s truth landing in your life, and what kind of harvest is growing from it?
Mercy Always Comes Back Around #MercyMatters #BoomerangEffect #FaithInAction
It’s simple—mercy in, mercy out.”
What we throw out into the world eventually circles back. If you have no mercy, you’ll receive no mercy. Based on reaping and sowing, it’s a bad idea. I wouldn’t be breathing these things into the air without understanding that it could very well be a boomerang that’s heading right back for you. Jesus said that the measure that we use for others will be used on us as well. If I’m hard on other people and want them to get theirs, then I had better be perfect. And guess what? We’re not. Sure, you may not have been as horrible as THAT horrible person but you’re not perfect enough to take on the position of praying evil on others.
