Spring is coming soon

Jesus used the illustration of planting and harvesting frequently as He taught His disciples the principles of service in the Kingdom of God. As citizens of His Kingdom we are called upon to cultivate, plant, sow, water, tend, observe, discern, reap, pluck, harvest, gather… Sounds like a lot of work. But when we are faithful, God is faithful and will give the increase. Our labor is never in vain.

Spring will soon be here. In gardening terms it is a time for planting. In spiritual terms let us be faithful in our calling whether it be witnessing to our neighbor, inviting friends and family to church, sharing Biblical principles with those at work, praying, studying or worshiping; let it all be done to the glory of God.

The purpose of this writing is not necessarily to express what I believe but to share what I think about a subject that might interest others and inspire them to do their own research and share what they think as well. The Bible is full of mysteries that require extensive study and thoughtful consideration to grasp them. There are many mysteries yet to be discovered (the questions that have not been asked) and many will go unanswered until the Lord gives us an unfettered understanding in glory.


I believe digging into God’s Word and searching out obscure things is healthy to the soul but it is not the most important thing and certainly not an end in itself.

Hebrews 13:9 says:

"Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein."


May God’s Grace be our inspiration and guide our hearts to a greater love for Him and for one another in our daily walk with Christ.
