Ye have ploughed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity; ye have eaten the fruit of lies: because thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men.
When we act with selfish intentions, we can be sure to get bad results. We might enjoy small gains and superficial victories for a short time, but they do not last.
Sowing seeds of violence and deception will only yield pain and destruction. Wickedness can not produce goodness, so let us always be mindful of sowing seeds of grace and mercy.
Gracious Lord, forgive me for how I have acted out of selfishness and pride.
I have hurt others, damaged relationships, and caused ruin.
I pray Lord that You would bring healing to right these wrongs and that Your grace would fill me.
Empower me to move forward in Your love so that I sow the grace and mercy that produce healthy and nourishing fruit. In Jesus’ name, amen.
