I’ve been blogging for about a month or more now. And I enjoy it. I want to help people understand what God is all about. So I comment around on other people’s blogs. I write my own posts, thoughts I’ve had, etc. And maybe it’s made an impact, maybe not. I’m not yet earning a living as a pro blogger, as I dream to :) But none of that is why I’m blogging.
‘Again Jesus began to teach by the lake. The crowd that gathered around him was so large that he got into a boat and sat in it out on the lake, while all the people were along the shore at the water’s edge.2He taught them many things by parables, and in his teaching said:3“Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed.4As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up.5Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow.6But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.7Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants, so that they did not bear grain.8Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up, grew and produced a crop, multiplying thirty, sixty, or even a hundred times.’
I’m blogging to honor God. I believe God calls us to go out (Matthew 28:19) and scatter the seed of the word wherever we’re at. The results whether that seed grows or not isn’t up to us. While we can train the best we can at scattering that seed, we can’t make it grow ourselves. It’s all up to the Lord to make it grow. But God is honored by scattering that seed as best we can simply because it’s what He told us to do.
For Him.
