Galatians 6:9 — “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”

There are days when the weight of kindness feels heavy. When your efforts seem unnoticed. When helping, giving, and serving begin to feel like more pouring out than filling up. Maybe you’ve been praying for someone who hasn’t changed, giving to someone who doesn’t say thank you, or showing up when others stay home. You begin to wonder — does it even matter?

But Galatians 6:9 reminds us that God sees every seed we plant. The harvest isn’t always immediate, and it doesn’t always look like we expect, but the promise stands firm — if we don’t give up. The good you do today might be the answer to someone else’s prayer tomorrow. The smile you give, the kindness you show, the forgiveness you extend — these are not wasted moments. They are eternal investments.

Even Jesus grew weary as He walked dusty roads healing, teaching, and loving people who didn’t always love Him back. Yet He never stopped doing good. He never stopped giving. He never stopped trusting His Father’s timing.

So if you’re feeling tired today, remember this — you’re planting seeds that Heaven is watering. The harvest will come, perhaps not in the season you expect, but in the one God has already appointed. Keep showing up. Keep doing good. Keep trusting that the One who called you sees your effort, honors your endurance, and will make all things beautiful in His time.

Prayer:
Lord, when I grow weary, remind me that You see me. Help me keep doing good even when no one notices. Strengthen my heart and renew my spirit. Let me trust that the seeds I sow in faith will one day bloom into a harvest that glorifies You. Amen.
