Farm Town

I play a game on FaceBook called Farm Town. It is a fun little application where you sow seeds and build up your farm. I had not really thought too much about it, but then realized there are spiritual lessons to be learned even while playing this computer game. In this game you are given land. You choose how you want to set up your fields and what you want to plant. Different seeds have different costs and growth times before harvest. In our walk with God we have land on which we walk and we are commanded to take back what the enemy has stolen from us. We plant seeds, whether they are financial, helps, time, prayer or confession, and have to wait till they fully mature and harvest time comes. One benefit the game has that life doesn't is that you can go into the game and see what percentage your crops are at. We can't do that in life. We just have to obey God and stand on the word and on our confession. Farm Town may be a fun game but in life we need to plant our good seeds and stay in faith for the harvest to come.


Luke 8:10-12
