"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."
Galatians 6:7
I think this is the scriptural version of "you can't get something for nothing." Even though we like the idea of skipping all the hard work and being insta-rich and insta-famous, and even insta-good sometimes, it isn't the surprise inheritance, the chance meeting with a talent scout, or even the dramatic conversion that makes us who we are. Instead, it is the things that we put into life... the actions that we take every day, making things better, or worse, for the world around us and especially for other people. We can't do bad things and get a good future, or any other sneaky permutation of it. There is only one way, and that's the Lord's way.
Today, let's remember that we can't reap what we don't sow, and let's get out there and plant some good. :)
