The beautiful and bountiful wheat field that is pictured in the background of this blog site did not happen by happenstance. Someone invested the necessary time and effort in sowing the right kind of seed into fertile ground that had been properly prepared to receive that seed. Even after the seed was sown, there would have been adequate care given to the field in order to secure a fruitful yield. With the proper conditions of enough sunshine, enough water, and enough vigilance to keep the field free of weeds and natural pests...the harvest ends up being plenteous, the yield abundant, and the owner of that wheat field is rewarded handsomely!
The counseling process is not much different. Generally, when people come to us, they are not happy with their harvest. Whether it is fear or anxiety or depression that is keeping them from receiving God's fruitful blessings, or out-of-control anger and rage (their's or someone else's) that is ruining relationships, or the loss of love in a marriage that had started out with so much promise but has suffered greatly due to broken promises, or the heart-depth grief from the loss of a loved one, or even the loss of trust in a God who doesn't seem to be answering your prayers - all of the above, and much more, doesn't just go away by happenstance. If you want to change your harvest, you must change the seeds that you are sowing.
A verse in the New Testament (Galatians 6:7) is quite revealing: "Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever one sows, that will he also reap." So don't be misled by sincerity or good intentions. If you are not happy with the harvest you are reaping, you will want to change the seeds you are sowing. And GOD tells us, indeed gives us, the right seed for us to sow, so that we can reap a truly beautiful and bountiful harvest!
