Subject: Retribution? |
Bible Note: Yes very helpful, thanks Does Sowing/Reaping refer only to rewards we get in heaven? Is there a here and now Sowing/Reaping? For instance if I plant/sow a crop this spring say of tomatoes, should I normally expect some nice juicy tomatoes this summer? Also what if I behave badly (sow angry words)toward my best friend for no reason - say I am just in a bad mood and want to take it out on her. What kind of response would I normally receive? What if she replyed angryly back? Would you say I am reaping what I had sown? |
