Daily Light on the Daily Path
Evening February 21
Light is sown for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart.
Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy! He who goes out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.
And what you sow is not the body that is to be.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.… In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Ps. 97:11; Ps. 126:5, 6; 1 Cor. 15:37; 1 Pet. 1:3, 6, 7
