Proverbs 20:4
A sluggard does not plow in season; so at harvest time he looks but finds nothing.
Ecclesiastes 11:4
Whoever watches the wind will not plant; whoever looks at the clouds will not reap.
There is another law of "Sowing and Reaping": We reap only IF we sow. That sounds really basic, but in the universal sense, many forget to sow. The Ecclesiastes verse tells us that if you look at circumstances that you see with your human eyes, you might refrain from sowing BY HOARDING, therefore, you will not have a harvest, because the seed was not planted.
When we speak of alms giving, we find that if we give for the help of another, we will reap help when we need it. Here I must caution that the thoughts and the intents of the heart are very important. If we sow, in order to get, we sow amiss. If we sow out of love for GOD and the person/s in need, the blessing from GOD will be in abundance.
In all things: TO GOD BE THE GLORY, GREAT THINGS HE HATH DONE.
