The Law of Harvest


One of the main hindrances to living our full potential is selfishness. As long as we focus on our own wants and desires, we can never experience the fullness of living. Many of us know these words of wisdom – whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. Just as the farmer plants good seeds if he hopes for a bountiful harvest, we too must plant good seeds in the fields of our families, businesses and personal relationships.

If we want happiness we have to sow some happiness seeds by making other people happy. Go find somebody to cheer up. If we want to reap friendships, we need to sow a seed and be a friend. We need to sow first.

The reason why people are not growing is because they are not sowing. At times we are too engrossed with the affairs of our lives that we have no time for others. But the law of the harvest is that sowing precedes reaping. We need to get some seed to the ground first. We need to be more seed-oriented instead of self-oriented. That’s the way to receive a harvest and experience the fullness of life.
