Brothers, Mow Your Lawn

By William Marshall

Pastoral ministry often doesn’t yield immediate results. Occasionally we will see some fruit: a child makes a profession of faith and is baptized, a couple reconciles and decides to give it another chance, a parent stops you and tells you how thankful they are for your faithfulness in the pulpit. Those things happen. It is not a completely thankless job. On top of that, we know the Lord sees and we know that He is moving and working even when we cannot see it.
