Scripture: Galatians 6:9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
Devotional: As we try to establish habits that will improve our lives for years to come, it can be incredibly intimidating. Knowing that none of these habits are good for the soul or temporary, but rather something that would be in our best interest to commit to for a lifetime is something that may cause us to shrink back.
This verse in Galatians is an encouragement to us. Continue on. Even when you don’t yet see the benefit of the habits that you are creating. It can take a long time to see the fruit of the work that you are putting in. But Paul, the author of Galatians, reminds us to keep going. And when the time is right in God’s sight, we will reap the benefit of what we have sown. Do not give up.
Reflect:
- Pray that God will sustain you and give you strength as you continue on a lifelong journey of serving Him.
