Sowing and Reaping Together

Listen to the Podcast

Here is today's communion meditation.

 Yesterday we talked about John 4:35 which says, "Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, then comes the harvest’? Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see that the fields are white for harvest."

In the next verse John 4:36 it says, "Even now the one who reaps draws a wage and harvests a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may be glad together."

One of the themes in the Bible is that when God blesses people can have so much harvest that they will still be harvesting when it's time to sow. 

One of the blessings for obedience to God in Leviticus 26:5 is "Your threshing will continue until the grape harvest, and the grape harvest will continue until sowing time; you will have your fill of food to eat and will dwell securely in your land."

In today's communion we are asking God to help us understand how his blessing can cause us to both sow and reap at the same time, and to walk in this consistently.
