The seed will come up and grow. It s that time when God in his own wisdom fulfills the promise. Those who faithfully sow sometimes lean back on their hoe. But the basic truth is that God s plan will be accomplished on His own timetable. This pictures a bow being unstrung when the archer s through.
People can get unstrung too.
We need to stay strung in the sense that we keep sowing seed. Doing good to all people is a symptom of the fruit of the Spirit. Paul says we ought to be do-gooders. When you walk in the Spirit, the fruit of the Spirit is produced. Then you are going to do good.
