Daily Affirmation #290

While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night will not cease” (Genesis 8:22, MEV). This is one of the greatest principles that God EVER gave us. It is SO SIMPLE. No matter WHAT we do, we are planting a seed. EVERY WORD is a seed. EVERY ACTION is a seed. EVERY THOUGHT that we MEDITATE on is a seed (versus every thought that comes up or on us and we identify it. There’s a difference). They are ALL seeds. And they WILL grow fruit. That FRUIT identifies the quality of the thought. The seeds aren’t visible. They’re in soil. They’re underground. The plants they grow could be this or that. Hard to tell. But the fruit? The fruit ALWAYS tells. Someone can talk a great game, but what’s the fruit in their lives? A book or seminar or movie or show might have a great message, but what’s the fruit? Someone can seem wonderful, but what’s the fruit? Actions can be hidden. Words can be used to deceive. But the fruit is always visible if you care to look for it. The fruit always tells the true story of what has been planted in that heart. Best part? We change the seed, we’ll change the fruit. We’ve been given a great principle that we can follow to keep the wrong message out of our eyes and ears. We’ve been given a great principle for the changing of our lives. A simple way to look at our fruit, compare it to the example Jesus set for us, and apply what Jesus applied to change our harvest. Bit by bit, fruit by fruit, always able to make changes, plant His seeds, and become more and more like Him.
