Galatians 6:7-8
"Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life."
Meditation
This is God's world, not your world. This is God's world, whether you want it to be or not. He designed it the way He wanted it. He called it into being. And He rules and reigns over it. You're a part of His world. As a result, you can't escape from it, no matter how much you may want to, no matter how much you may try. You can't pick another world to live in. What are the consequences? Verse for today has the answer. If you live to please God's Spirit, then you will receive a reward, despite any shortcomings you may have. You will receive eternal life. If you live to please your flesh, that is, your sinful self, then you will receive no reward, despite any good you may do. The truth is, however, that God will not be mocked or defied. You will always reap what you sow. Amen!
