There is good and evil... What side are you on?

in #steemchurch6 years ago

Someone asked me: Doing good using evil, is it okay? Of course not, Mother Teresa of Calcutta said:

"charity without honesty, it is not charity"



Brothers I invite you to meditate with me in another of my biblical studies and now we are going to reflect on Galatians 6: 9.

"And let's not get tired of doing good, because to reap our own time, if we do not lose heart."

The verse we have just read is very important for our Christian and social life, because we live in a society that needs to relive this biblical principle that through studies of the Word of God will provide us with better and better wisdom to live.

We are living an era of almost total absence in our society, of men and women who do not get tired of doing good. This principle of doing good, is being replaced every day by actions and attitudes totally contrary and with no kindness to the neighbor, or even to himself. We are setting aside respect and love for the needy, and replacing it with rejection and contempt.

It is important to understand that this verse teaches us about the importance of sowing, when the Apostle Paul, orients not to get tired of doing good, he also makes it clear and certain that at the proper time we will go to harvest the good that was planted; but if we do not, in the book of Job 4.8, it is written:

"From what I have observed, whoever cultivates evil and sows wickedness, that will also collect."



Just as the seed of goodness sown generates goodness, we must also understand that the seed of evil will also generate evil.

We need to understand that the kindness that we must exercise is something continuous and that it should not be interrupted, on the contrary it should be practiced constantly and in a way that does not discourage us, that means that regardless of who we are, our attitudes should always promote good progress, in Galatians 6.8 it is written:

"He who sows to the flesh of the flesh will reap destruction, but he who sows to the Spirit of the Spirit will reap eternal life.

We are called to sow by the Spirit, because from it comes kindness and meekness, to dull the kindness that we need to exercise.

Maybe you are going through situations, where people hurt you, judged, defamed or even betrayed your trust leaving you sad and hopeless to continue doing good, know that it is at this moment that that word has to be exercised in your life , forgive and forget, because they do not know what they are doing.

You live by the Spirit and that will make you different, it is precisely in these hours that the best seeds of goodness must be sown, and a great harvest will be harvested by you.

God is with you, and he takes care of you, but you have to be on the side of good.

Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.
