Sow Good Seeds
Click below to listen to today's devotional
Many aren’t proud of their family trees. The harvest was taken, but no seed was sown. Childhood memories bring more hurt than inspiration. If such is the case, put down the family scrapbook and pick up your Bible.
John 3:6 reminds us, “Human life comes from human parents, but spiritual life comes from the Spirit.” Your parents have given you genes, but God gives you grace. Didn’t have a good father? Galatians 4:7 says, “He will be your father.” Didn’t have a good role model? Ephesians 5:1 says, “You are God’s child whom he loves, so try to be like him.”
You cannot control the way your forefathers responded to God. But you can control the way you respond to him. Your past does not have to be your prison. Choose well and someday—generations from now—your grandchildren and great-grandchildren will thank God for the seeds you sowed!
