Synopsis

Do not deceive yourselves; God is not mocked: for whatever a man sows that shall he also reap. For he that sows to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption, but he that sows in the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap eternal life. (Galatians 6:7-8)

We can't get away from the principle of reaping what we sow. If we sow good seed, we anticipate a great harvest. But if we sow weeds, we'll harvest no more than we sowed. The same is true spiritually and practically. If we want a reward in heaven, we must live for Christ. On the other hand, if we lie, cheat, swear, steal, get drunk, use drugs, or otherwise fulfill the lusts of the flesh, the reality is we'll pay the consequences both now and in eternity. No matter how much society tries to convince us otherwise, this law has proven to be true without fail.

This is the bright truth held before us in this little book – if we sow good seed, we will reap a great harvest. While sowing and caring for the seed sown isn't without work, the promise of a great harvest is what keeps us going and what brings joy to our labors. Be assured that it is not in vain to spend much time pruning, weeding, and carefully watching over the garden of your heart and the hearts of those you love.

About the Author

Dwight L. Moody, determined to make a fortune, arrived in Chicago and started selling shoes. But Christ found him and his energies were redirected into full-time ministry. And what a ministry it was. Today, Moody's name still graces a church, a mission, a college, and more. Moody loved God and men, and the power of a love like that impacts generations.


About Dwight L. Moody

Dwight Lyman Moody (1837–1899), American evangelist, was born in New England, the child of a large working-class family. A religious conversion as an adult led him to found a ministry in Chicago, to work as a battlefield missionary during the Civil War, and eventually to lead massive evangelical crusades during the 1870s and 1880s in both England and the United States. He founded Christian schools and a Christian publishing house, which published his many nondenominational evangelical tracts.

Goodreads review by Yibbie

It’s easy to think that people get away with sin in this life, certainly the ‘little’ ones at least. But God’s word assures us otherwise. Every action has its consequences for us and those around us. A lifetime devoted to seeking righteousness by God’s path and laws leads to a godly life and eternal......more

Goodreads review by F

Another great book by Moody [though slightly hampered by a change of Bible version from the original thus making some of his points less clear as words he refers to are not the same as the verses given]. Still - highly recommended.......more

Goodreads review by Robin

Sowing and reaping is an important conceptual message the Lord wants all of children to understand, believe in and follow, if they desire to have a pathway which will ultimately lead them into His divine kingdom.

"A man expects to reap when he sows; he expects to reap the same kind of seed that he sows; he expects to reap more; and ignorance of the kind of seed makes no difference." We are constantly on the cycle of sowing and reaping, and we will definitely reap the fruits that we sowed someday. If we sow t......more

So simple, so profound Every Christian should read this book as a reminder of the importance of sowing and reaping. We get so busy in our lives that we tend to forget that we are sowing seeds everyday and will reap a harvest. Moody is very clear; you reap after the kind you sowed, good......more
