July 17, 2005: Sowing a Seed for the Future:

You may remember reading a few blogs ago about how we picked up a shed for just $65 and were going to use it as part of our church ministry in Mt Morgan. Anyway during the week the people in our church unanimously agreed to give our shed away to someone more needy than we are. We have a valued friend and brother who is living on his land in a tent and we have decided to bless him with our shed. He graciously accepted our offer. Although we don't have a shed now, the fact that we have given it away is like planting a seed that will turn into a plant and give us fruit later on. When time comes that we are in need ourselves, we will reap provision for our need. The Bible talks about this in a couple of places, but in Galatians 5 it says "whatever you sow, you shall also reap." We believe that the Bible is true and that because have helped someone else in his time of need, that God will most certainly bless us back in our time of need. It was a very exciting thing for us to do. We also hope to help him put it up.
