Isn't it amazing how big trees can grow from small seeds? This rule applies to everything in life. We will always have to deal with the seeds we plant. So let's not try to trick ourselves while we're trying to trick God. Let's make sure that the seeds we plant are ones that we want to grow.

Prayer

Bless the seeds I plant so they may bear fruit for You and be a blessing to those I love, O Eternal God who existed before time began and who will be the Great I AM when time is no more. By way of Jesus, the wheat grain who perished and was buried in order for true life to blossom. In Jesus' precious name I pray. Amen.

We won't try to trick God. Even if we put on a show for other people, God knows what's really in our hearts. So, if we spend our money, time, and interest on other things and only give God the leftovers, we need to know that we won't have a spiritual harvest that is rich. As children of God, what we do to other people is just as important as what we do to ourselves. In this time of sickness and pain, we must do good to everyone. God cares about every person and every life, and so should we.

Prayer

O LORD God Almighty, You can see everything and know what's in everyone's heart. Please give me the wisdom to see the people I need to invest in. Lord, help me to use the chances You give me to do good for other people. I ask for this help in the name of Jesus, and I want to serve others in a way that honors Jesus. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.

O Eternal God, who lived before time began and will be the Great I AM when time is no more, bless the seeds I plant so they can grow and bring You fruit, and bless the people I care about. Through Jesus, who was like a grain of wheat and died and was buried so that real life could grow. In Jesus' precious name I pray. Amen.
