[The Glory Unveiled]
Those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy. ( Psalms 126:5 )
Sentiments are natural [from God] and they are good if appropriately expressed, but they can be very bad if misused. So that God is not exactly moved by empty sentiments where principles are a necessity. In the verse of scripture, we see that an emphatic statement is made about sowing and reaping—input and output. We also see that it wouldn’t matter how the input is made, according to the spiritual principle expounded here. So that even those who sow in tears will reap. Once the seed is viable, it wouldn’t matter how or what condition the sower is in, it will yield. One would think that the scripture should have read, “those who weep or cry will reap…” A big “No” is the response. Crying and weeping will not strike any significant cords in heaven if we willfully ignore spiritual principles. So don’t use your tears and teary situations as an excuse not to sow the seeds that need to be sown. But unfortunately, many of us are in that category of people who would rather want to be pitied and patted at the back for being mediocre. The four lepers at the gate of the Arameans still had to make a move (effort)—walk—for their footsteps to be amplified by heaven. They had to sow a seed of taking little steps of faith. Beloved, we cannot ignore the principle of sowing if we want to reap.
Prayer_Bead: Father in Heaven, thank you for the grace to understand this principle of sowing. I pray that you cause me to reap in joy according to your word.
