August 31 – Sowing Tears, Reaping Joy


He who goes out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.”   Psalm 126:6 – (ESV)

God never pretends that this life will be easy without any hardship, but He promises us this, for those who have believed and received Jesus and now know and love Him, the tears we shed are like seeds that are sown which will one day bloom into enormous joy.  This verse reminds us that we have a message to proclaim to others in our world and this message can produce results which are of great value.  Passing the message on may sometimes be difficult but as we keep on, it will produce good and eternal result.  If proclaiming the message of Good News seems discouraging at times, we can still trust the Lord to use that difficulty as seeds which are sown.  These seeds will eventually produce the harvest which we will carry home to heaven.  Earlier in this Psalm (v.3) the declaration is made that the Lord has done great things for us; let's be glad and shout for joy because of this promise.
