Meditation Thought: “ Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.” (1 Corinthians 15:58)
A guaranteed harvest! What farmer would not eagerly plant, till, and gather, despite difficulties and setbacks, knowing that all of the effort would absolutely be rewarded if they don’t give in and give up?
This is what our Father would have us realize: He sent His Son to us with the message that “Your harvest is guaranteed. Your faith is not misplaced. I do not ask you to work in vain but to work to produce a bountiful harvest. A harvest for you, for your family, for your fellow man. Believe it!
Turn to Me to cope with crisis. I will lead you through it, bringing new knowledge and wisdom in overcoming that will increase the harvest beyond even your fondest dreams. I give you the seed, I nourish it – do your part to make it thrive despite all that would destroy it. Study My ways, which I wish you to know, but which I will not force upon you. You will learn a superior method of farming to your joy and others’ amazement. Together, we will turn chaos into productive lands, feeding my people who will praise My name.”
