Character: Sowing and Reaping

A man reaps what he sows.

Sow a thought, reap a habit.

  Sow a habit, reap a character.

   Sow a character, reap a destiny.

The way we think is critical to character development.  

Paul tells us in Romans 12:2 to be transformed by the renewing of our minds and in Philippians 4:8 to set our minds on what is true, noble, right, pure, and admirable.

Here are some questions to ask yourself about how you are thinking:

  1) Where will these thoughts lead me?  Is that where I want to go?

  2) Are these thoughts consistent with God’s ways?

  3) Do these thoughts fit me as a follower of Christ?

Remember that Proverbs 23:7 (KJV) says that as a man thinks in his heart, so is he.
