We reap what we sow, but not in the same season.

This is a biblical principle that we would do well to heed ourselves, and train our children in.  It explains why it is so easy to pursue unrighteous, unhealthy, “bad” things and hard to pursue righteous, healthy, good things.  The delayed fruit causes us to be short-sighted, and we pay a price for it in the long haul.  This is why long term goals couple with short term grit is critical for growth.  Keep your eyes fixed ahead and do simply do the next right thing.  The fruit will come, in it’s due season.

“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

COT/BOM
Stay in the fight!
“Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.”
– 1 Peter 5:8-10

Each day we face a battle.  What makes it tricky is that it isn’t a physical battle, but a battle in our mind and hearts.  It’s easy to get complacent and put our minds on autopilot, and that is exactly what our enemy wants.  Each day we must “resist” and stand “firm” against his attacks.  The key is to recognize that we don’t fight this battle alone!  We have brothers around us who are ready to lock shields and pursue righteousness with us.  It’s not easy, but it’s worth it.
