Faithful In Work & Witness
Consider the farmer who plants 1,000 acres of corn. Not counting the astronomical cost of equipment and fuel, he will spend $100,000 on seed. Then he buries it in the ground...
INVESTMENT...RISK...
WORK...FAITH...
WAITING....Producing a harvest always comes with a significant cost.
The same is true in our spiritual lives. Salvation is free, but following Christ will COST YOU EVERYTHING. Jesus said, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me." It is tempting to SPEND life on my own desires and pleasure and comfort. But we have been called to be workers in Christ's harvest field. The seed that we plant is the gospel, and that seed contains God's life-giving POWER. Be a faithful worker, a faithful witness, a faithful 'sower of the seed,' and you will be blessed! -Pastor Brad
