Advent Calendar Day 14

December 14, 2020 by Bill Fulton

In our Psalm this Sunday, we hear the words, “Those who sowed with tears
will reap with songs of joy.”

This verse, the basis for the old Gospel song, “Bringing in the sheaves,” reminds us that even though our labors are full of toil and weariness, at the end God will bring us to a place of joy.

This drawing is a copy of Van Gogh’s painting, “Noon: rest from work.” To me it captures the bliss of rest after a period of physical labor.
