Hello there! Happy Sunday to you. ❤ I hope you’re doing well! I’ve decided to center today’s post on a single Bible verse, not only because it’s wonderful, but also because it has been a good while since I wrote about His Word, which I love so much!
From now on, I’m planning on sharing verses on Sundays this way when one really stands out to me from the week. If I feel like I can write a post on it (like I am today), I’ll gladly do so!
If you’d like to see the verse I’m sharing in this post, I’m including it below! I hope you enjoy reading. ❤
John 4:35
“Do you not say,
It is still four months until harvest comes?
Look! I tell you,
raise your eyes and observe the fields
and see how they are already white for harvesting.”
Let’s say you’re making preparations for a mission trip you’re going on this summer. It is definitely looking like everything is going smoothly, and the trip itself will be a great success.
But that’s four months from now.
Does that mean you should save all of your creative, loving energy for that trip? It makes more sense to put all your effort into planning, preparing, making sure everything’s ready for the day you leave – right?
Well, I think there’s a beautiful balance to be found between thriving in the present, and being conscious of the future. ❤
You see, if we were to wait until specific opportunities to be kind, to love, to share with others about His grace, the world would be a much darker place.
The time is always right to do what’s right.
We need beautiful individuals to rise up and believe, with their whole heart, that the harvest is always here.
Thank you so much for reading! I’m praying I could inspire you on this lovely Sunday. 🙂
Let me know in the comments below what YOU thought of this post!
I’d love to hear from you. ❤

Such a beautiful and powerful reminder Maggie. Just like I was mentioning on your other post, while we can look forward to the future–it’s even encouraged!–, it is even better to praise God for the beauty of right here, right now 🙂

Thank you ❤ I’m happy you liked it! I definitely agree. Wasting away the present for the planning of our future is not worth the sacrifice.
