Perseverence

Galatians 6:7-10 (NIV)
"7Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. 8The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. 9Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. 10Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers."

Have you ever been mocked or belittled for your beliefs? Often times people feel free to mock our faith or point out things we have done in the past as proof that we are not in the family of God. This may come from people we have known our whole life or even from family. Remember the ones who will do the most mocking are the ones who are having the light shone on them the brightest.

Keep up the witness, saints. Keep sowing to please the Holy Spirit. Persevere and we will reap a harvest beyond our wildest dreams. Imagine the feeling you will have when one day you meet the person you reached out to with kind words, or the person you left a Bible tract with in Heaven.
