“But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth
bountifully shall reap also bountifully.” 2 Corinthians 9:6 KJV
Story/Message
Once there were two sons who were equally given two farms. “Go and do as you wish with your
land,”  exclaimed their father.
The first son was very grateful. He immediately decided he was going to work his land and
convert it into a magnificent Field of Greens. “I will plant and produce the best vegetables and
herbs the world has ever seen,” he promised.
He woke up at 5:30 am each morning to work his land and returned home after sundown. The
days were long, but since he loved what he did, to him, it was not work. He put so much pride
and effort into his dream that he carefully selected every seed before he planted them on his
land.
He took the time to diligently remove weeds and fertilized the soil so only the best vegetables
and herbs would grow. He educated himself on the latest farming methodology, invested in new
and updated machinery, and adopted the most innovative irrigation systems available.
This went on for years and finally, after much love and determination, his farm began to produce
the best vegetables and herbs in the nation. His farm came to be known all over the land and
people nicknamed it from Field of Dreams, because anything he planted grew with astonishing
results.
So, it is said, that the first son went on to live a fulfilled, abundant, and happy life reaping and
sharing the fruits of his labor.
The second son decided he did not want to live tied to his land, so he sold most of the farm. He
left someone else in charge of what remained of it and chose to grow tomatoes. He took the
proceeds of the sale to travel the world and live lavishly. He did not invest anything in his land
and spent everything he received from the small production of the land.
Soon after, the third son found himself penniless and without land.  The land was never
cultivated properly and because he never bothered to oversee it or invest in it, the farm was
mismanaged, damaged and the soil became polluted.  Seeing that he had lost all he had, it is said
that the second son went on to live a poor, miserable, and unfulfilled life.
