Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears: for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the Lord. Jeremiah 31:16
He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him. Psalm 126:6
What assurance for servants of the Lord. There may be times when we become discouraged because we are not seeing results, despite our earnest endeavours. It is not for us to be concerned about success. Ours is simply to obey the Master’s call and leave the results with Him. There may be times of weeping, but the Lord promises that we will “doubtless” come rejoicing in the day of reward. —W. H. Burnett
Labour on, labour on, keep the bright reward in view,
For the Master has said, He will strength renew. —Dr. C. R. Blackall
