---SOW WHAT?
-"A wicked person earns deceptive wages, but the one who sows righteousness reaps a sure reward." --(Proverbs 11:18)-- 
--On the clock tower of my alma mater is an Art Deco bas-relief sculpture titled The Sower. The inscription beneath is is from Galatians 6:7, "Whatsoever a man soweth" (KJV). Michigan State University remains a leader in agricultural research, but this singular fact remains: Seeds of corn will not produce a crop of beans.
Jesus used many farming metaphors to explain the kingdom of God. In the parable of the sower (Mark 4), He compared the Word of God to seeds sown in different types of soil. As the parable indicates, the sower sows indiscriminately, knowing that some seed will fall in places where it will not grow. Like Jesus, we are to sow good seed in all places at all times. God is responsible for where it lands and how it grows. The important thing is that we sow. We are to sow seeds that will reap eternal life (Galatians 6:8).
The answer to the question, "Sow what?" is "Sow what you want to reap." To reap a good harvest in your life, start sowing seeds of goodness. --ODB/JSWherever the Lord leads us to be His witness can only be attained as we put our confidence in the Lord Jesus Christ. "[Some] plant seeds, some water, but G-D gives the increase." --[1 Corinthians 3:6]

Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
