“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy” (Psalm 126:5).
Our Treasure study writer uses the parable of the sower to help us understand today’s verse. “The seed is the Word, but the soils vary. In every case, the planter’s responsibility involves only the sowing—not the growing. The same is true for you. Leave the harvest to Him. You are only in charge of sharing the good news, of telling the story. It takes courage, labor, effort, struggle, pain, rejection, and repetition. But then comes the harvest. God promises you will reap in joy.” That joy is worth every effort and tear.
