Sowing

I find myself in a frequent position of not being able to explain what is happening in my life. This idea goes along with the fact that I don’t deserve or am entitled to anything so my search for a reason becomes futile. You would think at a point I would stop searching.  I am however, a feeler first and a thinker second according to Myers-Briggs so here is what I have been ruminating on: sowing. I can grasp this concept easily, that if you are more concerned with someone else’s plight and help them, you give God the room to work in your own life.  Sowing sticks close to reaping. You rarely see one without the other. Last year when we lost the contract on our house our friends successfully purchased their first home and Mike and I were in the car driving over to go help them tear up their floor.  The weight of that choice felt heavy but more than that it felt like the right thing to do. At that moment it was the next right step and one our thirsty hearts were eager to take. So were we sowing at that point? I pray that we were. That not only our hands but our hearts were in the position God wanted them to be. My coworker announced his wife was pregnant and for the first time in a while, all I could feel was their joy. I think God is showing me my next right step.
