TODAY’S READING
Galatians 6:7-9
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
God will provide the seeds for the sower.
The seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown. – Matthew 13:23 (NIV)
As a first-grade teacher, I have a deep commitment to teach children about God and God’s word. Often, I am inspired by the students’ enthusiasm when I hear them express their thoughts on what they have learned about God. I love to see their reactions and listen to their exchanges after I share a Bible story with them. However, after praying with them each morning, I think about what might happen to them in the future. Will they forget what they have learned? Will they be able to apply these lessons later in life?
Today’s scriptures from Galatians and Matthew give me hope that the children have indeed understood these lessons about God, and that in time, the seeds that have been planted in their hearts will produce a good harvest. I remain grateful that God has called me to plant seeds of faith in these young souls. I trust that God will feed and nurture their minds and spirits in ways that will lead to abundant life.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Good and everlasting God, help us to draw on your strength to plant good seeds. Inspire us to keep the faith as we wait for the seeds to bear fruit. Amen.
