Thought of the day-May 22, 2009

Good morning all! I am filling in for Angela this morning while she is away celebrating a graduation.

Today's verse is from Galatians, as I have recently been studying and memorizing from this book and have been encouraged by it in many ways.

Galatians 6: 9-10.

"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers."


This verse has always been difficult to follow because I very easily become weary in doing good. When other don't recognize the good things I do, or when someone hurts me and I want to hurt them back, it is hard to follow the words of Paul in his letter to the Galatians. But God has called me continue doing good and promises that he will recognize my choice to do what is right.

Today, my hope is that the words of Paul will encourage you to continue doing good even when it is difficult. And I pray that you will see the harvest of not giving up.
