Hosea 10:12 ” Sow for yourselves righteousness, reap the fruit of unfailing love, and break up your unplowed ground; for it is time to seek the Lord, until He comes and showers righteousness on you.”

Some plant, some water…but God makes those spiritual seeds planted in someone’s heart grow. (I Corinthians 3:6) And so every time we share the Good News of the Gospel, we’re sowing righteousness…and God rewards it. ( Psalm 24:5) And as we extent grace and mercy towards others, our Heavenly Father’s boundless grace and mercy is showered down on us. But this verse also warns us of becoming lazy and too comfortable in our Christianity…of losing that fire, that first love…like a field that was once productive but now lies fallow and inactive. Now is the time to examine yourself and ask…”Do I need to break up my unplowed ground?”
