He who observes the wind will not sow, and he who regards the clouds will not reap. As you do not know the way the spirit comes to the bones in the womb of a woman with a child, so you do not know the work of God, who makes everything. In the morning, sow your seed, and in the evening, withhold not your hand, for you do not know which will prosper, this or that, or whether both alike will be good. Ecclesiastes 11:4-6
GO FOR IT!
"A life spent making mistakes is more honorable and useful than a life spent doing nothing." George Bernard Shaw
How do you view God:
Taskmaster?
Punisher?
Iron-fisted ruler?
Abba Father?
Rewarder of those who seek Him?
How you view or, better yet, intimately know Him will affect the risk you take with your life.
In the morning, sow your seed; in the evening, withhold not your hand, for you do not know which will prosper, this or that, or whether both alike will be good. We don't know which will prosper, so go for it!
God calls us to love, not win or produce results.
The results are His.
In what areas of life are you being too cautious in order not to fail?
How can you show the love of Christ to others without regard to success or failure?
Lord, may our life be one of sowing. Regardless of where the seed may fall, we trust You for the fruit that grows on other's trees. Amen
