Have you wondered why Jesus said to do to others as you would have them do to you? There is a spiritual principle in that advice that you need to know about. It is a spiritual principle that has been in operation in the heavens since the world was created. It is the principle of seed planting and harvest. Whatever seeds you plant in the lives of others will come up as produce in your life.
The truth of that principle is that when you do things to make other people happy, you have also made yourself happy, too, because either that person or another person will do something to make you happy. It's a spiritual truth that will happen every time, seed planting and harvest, seed planting and harvest.
You do not plant strawberry seeds and reap turnips. It can't happen. It's the same with the truth of doing to others as you would have them do to you. What you do to others will be produced in your life, as well.
You must remember, though, that the principle works for bad actions as well as good actions. That's why Jesus spoke so often about it. If you plant seeds of sour tasting, gnarled, ugly fruit in the lives of others, you will reap produce from the same plants. They will boomerang back on you in some way.
I was trying to teach My children through Jesus the first lesson in seed planting and harvest when I gave the Golden Rule of doing to others as you would have them do to you. Doing good, even to those who have done evil to you, will produce good events in your life.
Doing evil to others will come back in the form of bad events in your life. It can't happen any other way because of the spiritual principle of seed planting and harvest.
Also, doing good to others makes you happy because you see the happiness that the acts produce. Joy begets joy. Kindness begets kindness. Forgiveness begets forgiveness. Peace begets peace. Gracious acts beget gracious acts. Happiness begets happiness.
The principle that Jesus so emphatically taught about doing to others as you would have them do to you is just another way of saying that the seeds that you plant will produce plants in your life, maybe not immediately but they will come back upon you sometime in the future.
I intended for all of My children to plant good seeds because they are made in my image. But, when evil came into the world at the invitation of Man, the devil began to influence My children to plant evil seeds in their lives by doing evil to others. The objective of evil was to curse my children, which is what evil produces, curses.
I teach My children through the statements of Jesus and through My Spirit to always plant good seeds of love, forgiveness, joy, peace, kindness, goodness, patience, self control and faith because those seeds will always overcome evil and reverse curses in the lives of My children.
Remember, when you do things to make other people happy, you have made yourself happy, also. It's guaranteed.
Love, God
