Every day life presents us with the opportunity to be sowers of good. And if we are honest, some days we become disappointed because we do not see the results we had hoped. But can you still say yes to doing good?
Just this morning, I was thinking does it really do me any good to do a certain activity. As I went about my activity, I did not get a response. But as I opened up the In Touch Magazine to read today’s devotional scripture, my answer came in the words of Galatians 6:9.
Some seasons of sowing extend far longer than we expect but be assured my friends reaping time does come IF (there’s that small word that has a big impact) we do not give up.
So I encourage you today to keep at it! Keep writing, keep encouraging, keep praying, keep believing, keep doing the assignment, keep being in the proper position to receive your harvest of blessing.

I’m always happy when I come across a new place to fellowship with other sisters in Christ.
LaVonne says
Just when I was getting double-minded about that gardening (spiritually and naturally), here comes Ms. Wanda … with the Word! Help me, Lord.
Wanda says
LOL, girl keep at it! I read your post Big Baby this morning and it made me smile. I needed that reminder that I was God’s big beautiful beloved. Now that’s a label I want to hang onto. Unfortunately blogger wasn’t playing nice so I couldn’t leave a comment.
Cynthia says
I love it! We must never tire, spiritually. Gotta keep pushing! Blessings!
Wanda says
Hey sweet friend, you have been on my mind lately. Keep sharing your gifts!
Monica Nixon says
Thank you for this reminder, Wanda. Wow…we know sometimes not giving up is easier said than done. It’s wise for us to keep God’s word and His promise in our mind. It helps us to keep our sowing in perspective.
Wanda says
Oh don’t I know it girl. There are several things I have been on the verge of quitting. But God!
Pam says
Wow, Wanda. This is two places today that I was encouraged to continue doing good. John Wesley also wrote, “Do all the good you can. By all the means you can. In all the ways you can. In all the places you can. At all the times you can. To all the people you can. As long as ever you can.”
And as Churchill said, “Never, never, never give up.”
Wanda says
Love that quote Pam. There is always some good that we can sow. Keep sowing.
Rachael says
Love your encouraging words here! Every once in a while we just need someone to come alongside to help us press on. Thanks for being that someone today!
Wanda says
Thanks Rachael! I was only passing along the push that was given to me. We never know who can benefit from what we share. Hope you have a great day.
Nikki (Sarah) says
thanks for the encouragement Wanda….I needed it. Wishing you a beautiful Thursday
Wanda says
Thanks Nikki. God knows just what we need doesn’t He. Have a great evening.
Alison Hector says
Oh yes! We of little faith (well, me of little faith!) tend to want to throw in the towel when we don’t see the fruit of our labors immediately. Thanks for the reminder to stay the course, Wanda. This verse always brings to mind the song by Kevin Davidson and Voices, “We Shall Receive.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JeJHA50ruo
Angel @ Finding The Inspiring says
I needed this right now, Wanda. Thank you for your faithfulness in writing words of encouragement. Blessings!

And reading your words is encouraging to me Angel. Have a great rest of the week!
Petite Diva says
This was so encouraging to me, especially with the kind of week that I have had!
Wanda says
Glad you could get a dose of encouragement. Hope you and that little one are doing well.
Anita says
Hi Wanda,
Thank you so much for your post, it really encouraged my heart today.
Blessings.
Wanda says
Hearing that others were encouraged by it encourages me as well. We are helpers one to another. Have a great rest of the week Anita.
Hazel Moon says
Ye shall reap what you sow, and doing good is always the way to reap a goodly harvest.
Wanda says
Yes mam it is. We can’t go wrong with sowing good.
denise says
Bless you.
Dawn says
Wanda,
I needed to read this today. Not that I’m discouraged, but just to be reminded “keep running the race”. We may never even see the fruits, but that’s okay. It’s in God’s hands and he grows others faith. Thanks so much.
Wanda says
That’s true Dawn some fruit comes way beyond our time. Keep racing!. Hope you enjoy a great weekend.
karen says
A good word for me today!! Keep on keeping on! Bless you, Wandan
Wanda says
Blessings to you Karen.
floyd says
Great advice and encouragement. Passion is king and perseverance is queen… just need a reminder now and again. Thanks, Wanda.
Wanda says
I like that saying Floyd. Never heard it express quite like that but two are valuable to being productive.
Judith at WholeHearted Home says
