Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord and not his abilities. Your abilities are given to you by God. It is up to you to develop them. It is like the man who had money but decided to bury it rather than invest it. Investing in it made it grow. So also God has given you abilities that need to be applied to bear fruit. Doing nothing will bring you nothing. So, you can sow your seed and in time it will bring forth a harvest. If you choose to sow love and understanding, then you will reap this. If you sow in dollars then this is what you will reap, dollars. This principle applies in all aspects of life, what you sow you will reap. If you sow envy and jealousy then this is what you will reap. Choose to sow love and peace and you will reap the same. It begins with one and the same seed you sow will spread around and bring forth abundant fruit.
