Do Not Grow Weary in Doing Good

Galatians 6:9
기원후 1세기
ORIGINAL
τὸ δὲ καλὸν ποιοῦντες μὴ ἐγκακῶμεν· καιρῷ γὰρ ἰδίῳ θερίσομεν μὴ ἐκλυόμενοι.
📜 THE VERSE

Let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap if we do not give up.

❓ TODAY'S QUESTION

Have I ever stopped doing good simply because no reward was in sight?

📝Reflection

There is usually one reason we tire of doing good: however much we do, nothing shows for it. When the seed is sown but no sprout appears, the heart sinks. It is exactly there that Paul says, "Do not grow weary." The key is in the words "in due season." Every field has its own time of harvest; that nothing shows now does not mean there is nothing—only that its season has not yet come. Many times I left the field just before harvest. Enduring that tedious stretch where goodness seems futile is what, in the end, divides those who reap from those who do not.
