Good or bad, there are always consequences for our actions. If we do what is bad, bad will come of it. If we do what is good, good will come of it. Sometimes it seems like it doesn’t work that way, but in the end, it always does. There are some who feel like they can get away with doing wrong, but sin always ruins things. Every time. And if you feel like it’s not worth it to live God’s way because bad things still seem to happen to you, hang in there. If you believe in Jesus Christ, you will have eternal life and one day God will right every wrong and reward you for every good thing that you have done. Be warned! There are always consequences for sin. Be encouraged! There are always rewards for righteousness. Good or bad, there is always a harvest.
