Welcome to Day 10 - What Are You Waiting ForGod gave me this as I was preparing for my mini message on giving. Matthew 13:2-9 reads:> "What do you make of this? A farmer planted seed. As he scattered the seed, some of it fell on the road, and birds ate it. Some fell in the gravel; it sprouted quickly but didn't put down roots, so when the sun came up it withered just as quickly. Some fell in the weeds; as it came up, it was strangled by the weeds. Some fell on good earth, and produced a harvest beyond his wildest dreams."
"Are you listening to this? Really listening?"What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for the perfect moment to get started? Are you waiting until the way is straight? When all obstacles are gone? Are you waiting for your children to be grow up? Are you waiting to until you have children? Let me share something with you. There are very few perfect moments and none that we can create.
Sometimes we will be like that farmer and sow our seed and see nothing. Sometimes we will sow and see fast results that are not sustainable and gain nothing. There will even be times when we will see negative results from our sowing. None of that changes the fact that we are called to do something. Start where you are and see if you don't reap a harvest that is 30, 60 or 100 times what you put in. Believe me God is doing amazing things in your life. You may not see it right now and that is ok. Just know that God is using you to influence someone for Him.
Don't get distracted along the way. Put your hand to the plow and keep moving.
