If we plant a peach seed we will come back in due time to find a peach tree. If we plant an apple seed, in due time we will have an apple tree. If we plant a lime seed and we come back in due time we will not come back to a tree filled with lemons, it just doesn't work that way. When we plant a seed we must not expect anything other than what we have planted. If we plant sin and we come back in due time we cant expect a blessing. Sin will only reap sin. While good will reap good. There is no way around this. God will not be mocked and He makes sure that whatever we sow we will also reap. But the part that I tend to mess up on is in the “due time” I plant a seed of good and want to come back in 24 hours to find a fully grown tree filled with blessings. I try to rush things along by giving my seed attention and attempting to help it grow along the way. But the seed doesn't need my help, it just needs time. The seed doesn't need me to come back and check on in every five seconds to see what it needs, because at the end of the day, it isn't my seed, it’s God’s seed. Anything that happens in my life ins’t for my glory or because of my works. It is all for the glory of God and it is all because of His works. I must follow the commands of the Lord and continually plant seed of good and allow the Lord to water and help those seeds grow. I must not look back and focus on those seed but continue to press on and press forward to the seeds that the Lord intends to be planted. If I focus on the seeds of the past I could be missing out on seeds that need to be planted right now. I must keep on keeping on

The great thing about our Lord is the fact that He didn't need to come to the earth to show us He understood and had the experience, knowledge, and good judgement, but he did. Jesus Christ came to this earth with the wisdom of the Lord in Him. He had an ear willing to listen to God’s voice. Being more like my Lord, Jesus Christ, is something that I try to strive for on a daily basis, and every single day I fall short of that because I am imperfect, but if I carry the wisdom of the Lord with me I don't have to trip up on the little things. If I practice wisdom and I mean really practice it, I can only imagine what God will show me in return. God calls us to love each other unconditionally because why? Because it wise. My Lord understands how wise it is to love one another as He has ...
