Greetings Bible Enthusiast!


Galatians 6:7

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.


We will spend this week exploring how this passage is applicable to our daily lives, (Paul further explains it in Galatians eight through ten). For today, however, let's just think about how the scripture is true in our natural, physical world. You plant corn and you reap corn, right? You plant rice and you reap rice. The same is true in the spiritual world...

God Bless You!

--FEATURED FUNNY:

Two storks are sitting in their nest: a father stork and baby stork. The baby stork is crying and crying and father stork is trying to calm him.

"Don't worry, son. Your mother will come back. She's only bringing people babies and making them happy."

The next night, it's father's turn to do the job. Mother and son are sitting in the nest, the baby stork is crying.

The mother is saying, "Son, your father will be back as soon as possible, but now he's bringing joy to new mommies and daddies."

A few days later, the stork's parents are desperate: their son is absent from the nest all night! Shortly before dawn, he returns and the parents ask him where he's been all night.

The baby stork says, "Aw, just encouraging singles to remain pure before God!"
