God Is Not Forgetful

You have been a willing laborer in the vineyard of the Lord.

You have spent many hours toiling and bringing in the harvest. You have made many sacrifices, and you have done it with a generous heart.

But today you have grown weary. It seems your labor has been in vain.
The seeds you have planted appear to have fallen on stony ground, and
become prey for the hot scorching sun.

I want to encourage you to not give up! Do not surrender to temptation to forget the promises of your God.

He is not a man that he should lie. What he has promised, he will perform. He simply will not perform it according to your time-frame.

There is a season for planting, a season for working the soil, and a season to wait patiently for the crop to come forth.

You are in the waiting season. God has not forgotten your labor of love that you have shown HIM, by ministering to his people.

Continue sowing into the lives of others. In so doing, you are showing love to Him. He will reward you, and he will honor your patience in waiting for the harvest.

This is not the time to grow weary; this is the time to patiently wait (and believe) for the promises of God to come forth; only then, will you see the rewards of your labor.

"God...will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them." Heb. 6:10
