A Hundredfold

The Christian walk: Total dependence on Christ, submission to all the other members of His body and bride--the church, a daily, willing death to self. To act independently of Christ's loving claims on one's life, to forsake the fellowship of the body, and to live for self leads irrevocably to spiritual disaster--for the believer and for all those he or she claims to love. The sorrow caused by those who deny His Lordship, despise the church, and make choices to please themselves indifferent to whoever the hurt caused by their selfishness is heart breaking. And do not those who love most deeply suffer most deeply because of those choices? Starting with Him whose heart is love.

:"Be not deceived. God is not mocked. Whatever a man sows, that will he reap." And the harvest produced by the sowing of one seed can be a hundredfold.
