A cake will taste like the ingredients that are put into it. Whether it is lemon, pineapple upside down, or German chocolate the cake will be the result of what is in it. The Bible teaches that we will receive a harvest based upon what we have put into the soil. It takes more than just having the right ingredients or the right seed to get the best outcome for your work. A cake has to be mixed, baked and frosted properly, a garden has to be tended to keep out weeds and pests, and our life after salvation will reflect the accumulation of things that we have put into it. Do not let ego, lust or insecurity deprive you of the best life that we can have when Jesus has promised us that He came to bring us a more rewarding, fulfilling and abundant life. Take heed to what things add value and what things are draining value from life so that we can know the area, or areas, that we should change, to complete the task that God has sent for us here to glorify Him and produce as much fruit (other believers) as we can.
