God’s law of the harvest teaches us that we reap what we sow.

Send this to your class chat after the lesson. Students and parents can open the story and resources at home, alone or with family.

“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”Galatians 6:9

Ask: What is one goal Heavenly Father would like you to work on, and what is the first seed?

Try: Choose one simple daily action toward your goal, and set a reminder so you don’t become “weary in well doing.”
