TEXT: Mark 10:45(NIV)
“For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
Mark 10:45, NIV
THE WORD:
The best way to ease stress in your life is to get your mind off the pressures by reaching out to help somebody else. In other words, sow good seeds in someone else’s life with a kind word or a helping hand and you will begin to reap a harvest of blessing. God asks you to give, but He doesn’t do it to stress you out or frustrate you. He does it to give you wonderful opportunities.
God is trying to help you plant your seeds, so that you can reap the harvest of your labors and your work. When you serve others by sowing seeds in their lives, you’ll feel a satisfaction, peace, a joy, a strength, and a fulfillment that only God can give. Strength, joy, energy, peace, and healing come to those who serve by sowing seeds.
If you’re faithful to do your part, He will be faithful to do His part. Don’t let the enemy deceive you into thinking that you can’t sow seeds of blessing in someone else’s life. Get that seed into the ground so it can grow into a harvest of blessing and victory.
PRAYER:
God, thank You for the opportunities You give me to reap a harvest. Make me alert today to those who need encouragement and help in Jesus’ Name. Amen
