Why am I doing good?


“And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.” Galatians 6:9

by Kathy Boyd

 

I know for me, it is easy to lose heart or become frustrated or sad when I do not see the end result of my “doing good.” I was so comforted recently when our pastor reminded me of this verse.

 

I can get so downhearted when I see my husband still in the world and not giving his life to Jesus. How much longer Lord? Why is he not a believer? Why is it taking so much time? Does he see the good I am doing, trying to direct our children to the only true living God who can answer all our questions and be our strength?

 

Thank you Lord, that Your timing is not my timing and Your ways are not my ways.

Thank you that you give me Your words to help me during this battle.

Thank you for Your guidance during this battle because this battle for my husband’s soul is YOURS.

 

 

"The Apostle intends soon to close his Epistle and therefore repeats once more the general exhortation unto good deeds. He means to say “Let us do good not only to the ministers of the Gospel, but to everybody, and let us do it without weariness.”

 

It is easy enough to do good once or twice, but to keep on doing good without getting disgusted with the ingratitude of those whom we have benefited, that is not so easy. Therefore the Apostle does not only admonish us to do good, but to do good untiringly." http://www.ccel.org/ccel/luther/galatians.ix.html
