Galatians 6:9 — Don’t Grow Weary in Doing Good
Scripture
“And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.” — Galatians 6:9
Quiet Reflection
Some days, good work feels invisible—like scrubbing buckets, hauling hay, or calming a frightened rescue that still flinches at kindness. Galatians 6:9 calls us to stay the course. The harvest comes to those who keep tending, even when they can’t yet see green shoots. Every act of quiet faithfulness stacks toward redemption.
Sanctuary Lens
At Dalo Acres, “doing good” looks like bandaged hooves, belly scratches, and second chances. Progress moves at the speed of trust. This verse grounds us when compassion feels costly—it reminds us that care is a long game, and love compounds daily.
Devotional Thought
We don’t power through goodness; we persist in it. The seed doesn’t argue with the soil—it simply stays. Keep showing up where God’s planted you. In time, He makes even ordinary obedience bloom. When weariness whispers “quit,” remember: you might be one sunrise from seeing fruit.
Practice for Today
Pray: “Lord, steady my hands for good today. Help me sow even when I can’t see the harvest.”
Act: Do one good thing no one will notice—because unseen kindness is sacred work.
Rest: Take five quiet minutes in creation. The same God who grows the pasture grows patience in you.
