7 Don’t be deceived: God is not mocked. For whatever a person sows he will also reap, (Galatians 6:7 CSB)
It is easy, when a desire comes over us to give in. In fact, it is the easiest thing in the world just to indulge ourselves. Yea, we may have pang of regret after, or maybe even a thought to the consequences before. But our nature is to do what makes us feel good.
Scripture though admonishes that we reap what we sow. Meaning for every action there is a reaction.
We have a life we were given by God and he has given us free will as well. We must not take either for granted. God’s plan and will for our lives has purpose. Our free will should be focuses upon a scriptural knowledge of what God would expect from us.
We should seek to sow in a manner where we reap rewards, not heap conquests upon our heads.
