Sowing

Some days blogging is easy. Some days it is hard. Some days I worry about being offensive. Once in a while I get a positive comment. I read where this or that public person has said something offensive. I want to be correct in the eyes of God rather than politically correct. Being politically correct seems to put us at odds with God's word many times. Times change, once Reagan was popular and I believe him to be a good man. Then some years later Clinton was popular. Even in the news today we hear of activities of Clinton that would shame most of us, but he is a hero of the popular movement today. I think that is sick, shows a sick side of our society where we will overlook things that would normally be offensive but because he is on our side politically, its OK.  If the political side that we do not agree with were to do the same thing, there would be an outrage. If we had a friend that would do these things we would call them two-faced or worse. Our society is making laws that are contrary to God's law. We call evil good and good evil. If God would someday punish us for disobedience as he did the Israelites, what would that look like? There are consequences for wrong doing. There will be consequences for us, but what will that look like. Will it be in the form of natural disasters, illnesses, a government that mistreats us? What is in store if we reap what we are sowing as a nation? Many times the seeds we plant produce one hundred fold. Look at the dandelion flower, what happens when it blooms?  You can pull off the bloom and it blooms again in a few days. One acorn can grow into a tree, and look at all the acorns that fall off that one tree year after year.  Are we sowing good see or bad? Will we regret what we have sowed? Are we planting oak trees or dandelions? What should we be looking to reap? We are all sowing something. Sometimes I look at the past and wish for crop failure. Too late, all I can do is try and plant good seed today and tomorrow. Perhaps in the end I will have planted more oaks than dandelions.  Galatians 6:7 "Be not deceived; God is not mocked; for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."
