Galatians 6:9

PatienceExhaustionHopeServing others

7 Do not be deceived: God is not to be mocked. Whatever a man sows, he will reap in return.

8 The one who sows to please his flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; but the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

Let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to the family of faith.

11 See what large letters I am using to write to you with my own hand!
