RICK WARREN DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY 16TH AUGUST 2024
Every farmer knows that what you sow in one season, you will reap in another season. You plant in the spring, and you harvest in the fall.
The way you respond to someone or to a situation will affect your future in ways you cannot know right now. But if you respond by doing the right thing in this season of life, even if you don’t feel like it, then you can know that it will pay great dividends in the next season of life.
“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up” (Galatians 6:9 NIV).
No matter which season you’re in, there are four questions you can ask yourself that will help you reap God’s blessing in the next season.
1. What can you learn in this season of life?
There are some things we only learn through experience. Deuteronomy 11:2 says, “Remember today what you have learned about the LORD through your experiences with him” (GNT). Even if this season is a struggle, there are still lessons to learn and ways to grow.
2. What can you enjoy in this season of life?
The Bible says, “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 5:18 NIV). We are to live with a sense of gratitude on the good days and the bad days, because each day is a gift from God.
3. What is most important for this season?
Ecclesiastes 3:1 says, “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens” (NIV). If that’s true, then you can’t do it all at once. You need to make some tough decisions about what really matters at this particular time in life.
4. How can you help others in this season of life?
The Bible says clearly that you weren’t put on this earth just to live for yourself: “Whenever you are able, do good to people who need help” (Proverbs 3:27 NCV). God gave you abilities, talents, and energy to help other people.
God is working in every season of your life to make you more like him and to use you to bless others. Give some thought to these four questions so you can make the most of what has been given to you today.
