About Him

5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one? 6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. 8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
1 Corinthians 3:5-7(NKJV)

What is the son of man that you O Lord are mindful of him. It is not just the works of our hands that provides for us but the grace and divine increase that comes from God. While it is important that we work and be diligent in nurturing and watering of the works of our hands, the unseen part is where divine favor, mercy, grace and increase comes upon that which we have planted and watered.

So while our part and role cannot be discounted, we must work diligently while it is day before the night comes when no one can work. Therefore its no really about us but Him who gives increase and is forever faithful.

Be encouraged,
