Dan Randall Devotions: Good Coming Out Of Good

What Good things am I sowing?

Titus 3 v 1-11
Paul has giving Titus very specific teachings and corrections to different groups of people and specific instructions for Titus himself. Now he is finishing his letter by emphasising that saying you are a Christian isn't good enough we had to live the life. He points out good things we can do towards others.
We can live this great life and do good things but only the sacrifice that Jesus made.
Titus was in Crete which was under Roman rule but Paul urged Titus to remind people to submit to the rulers of the land but only to do what is good for them.
Paul was encouraging the people to sow good not evil.
Matthew 13 v 1-9 - "¹ That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake. ² Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people stood on the shore. ³ Then he told them many things in parables, saying: “A farmer went out to sow his seed. ⁴ As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. ⁵ Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. ⁶ But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. ⁷ Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. ⁸ Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown. ⁹ Whoever has ears, let them hear.”"
