“The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom.”—Matthew 13:38 ESV
Farmers realize that they could plow the fields, and scatter the seed, and they depended on God to feed and water the seed. All good gifts around us are sent from heaven above and that God alone is the Maker of all things.
We see His hand everywhere as “He paints the wayside flower” and “lights the evening star.” We trust Him for we are “His children” and “He gives our daily bread.” Particularly during harvest time, we can marvel at the ways He provides. We see that everything is from Him. We can offer Him what He most desires, “our humble, thankful hearts.”
Think about all that God has done for you. Thank Him and show your gratitude by bringing Him your offerings.
Reflection: Reflect on the seeds you’ve sown into good ground recently.
