Dying moments birth new ones. So true, and yet it requires faith to yield to the death of one moment, to allow God to birth another. God, as Creator, is perfect in all that He births, for only God knows your destiny. When God births a new life, physical or spiritual, the resulting peace and joy surpass the patience and longsuffering required attaining it. God’s reward is far greater than anything that you can achieve from your own efforts. Grow with the increase that is from God and build upon it.
To reap His harvest, you must become a part of God’s plan. If you plant the wrong seed, you may grow what may become a monster in your own life, an Ishmael. Stick with God’s original calling in your life, plant the good seed, and yield to Him to birth the gifts that will build your character and glorify Him.
