Cast Your Bread upon the Waters

⁶ In the morning sow your seed, and at evening ^(A)withhold not your hand, for you do not know which will prosper, this or that, or whether both alike will be good.

¹⁰ For ^(A)God is not unjust so as to overlook ^(B)your work and the love that you have shown for his name in ^(C)serving the saints, as you still do.

⁴² And ^(A)whoever gives one of ^(B)these little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.”

⁸ For ^(A)the one who sows to his own flesh ^(B)will from the flesh reap corruption, but ^(C)the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. ⁹ And ^(D)let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, ^(E)if we do not give up. ¹⁰ So then, ^(F)as we have opportunity, let us ^(G)do good to everyone, and especially to those who are ^(H)of the household of faith.

The Cheerful Giver

⁶ The point is this: ^(A)whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully^[a] will also reap bountifully.

¹⁴ and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid ^(A)at ^(B)the resurrection of the just.”
