2 Corinthians 9:6; He which Soweth Bountifully
2 Corinthians 9:6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
The bountiful sower finds himself receiving a bountiful harvest. The sower’s effort did not go to waste but was directly the reason for the fruitful produce that came after. The effort put into the sowing was tremendous. It was no small matter to be fully engaged in the time of sowing to ensure that the seeds are properly sown. The soil has to be prepared, the seed has to be sown on good ground.
The Apostle Paul observed such was the good work of the sower. Indeed, also observed in Proverbs 10:4 “He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich”. And in Proverbs 13:4 “The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.”
