Verse of the Day

A verse from an earlier day, with its reflection and prayer.

Reaping in joy

“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.”

Read in context Explain

Today's insight

Life often asks you to keep planting good seed even when your heart is heavy and your eyes are wet. The promise here is sure: those who continue to "sow in tears" are not laboring in vain. God honors the faithful effort you offer through sorrow, and He assures you that a season will come when you "shall reap in joy."

Reflect

What hard or painful effort are you carrying right now that you need to entrust to God, trusting that He will bring a harvest of joy from it?

Prayer

Lord, when my tasks feel heavy and my heart is weary, help me to keep being faithful. Receive my quiet tears and the seeds I plant today. Bring forth Your harvest in my life, and lead me into the joy You have promised. Amen.
