Here we find the sure principle that we will reap what we sow. If our time and attention is spent on chasing sin and wickedness, we will reap the fruits of that kind of life style. Notice what the passage says, evil isn’t passive, it pursues. The same could be said for those who strive toward right living; God honors those who honor him. While it may be difficult on the front end, to sacrifice your desires in order to live in a way that pleases God, it will be much easier to live with the consequences of your choices. What pursuits are ahead of you today? Have you taken the time to think through where these avenues might lead? Put your trust in the Lord today, and set out to pursue righteousness.
