Galatians 6:7-9 NKJV
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.
As long as this earth remains, God's natural laws will not be broken. As long as this earth remains, there will always be a reaping of like-seed with what was sown and a harvest of what was put in the ground. No man will sow maize and expect to harvest yam. In fact, what always makes sowing amazing is the exponential increase that harvest brings. You put in a few seeds of corn, you harvest cobs of maize in quantities that have no direct relationship with what was planted. This should set me thinking: there's nothing I do that is in vain. There's nothing I do that does not have its corresponding result, whether good or bad. Everything will be rewarded or punished at the appointed time, no matter how far you run or how hard you try and conceal your actions. Time has a funny way of revealing even the deepest motives for man's behaviour.
When you do good and men repay you with good, continue to do good. When men keep pressing you to compromise, remember that God's rewards isn't determined by other people's reactions to you but by your own actions and reactions. What you do with what others give you is proof of your maturity and readiness for God's blessings.
Remain focused. Don't give in or give up. His reward is here because his time of favour is here.
