‏ Psalms 126:6

v. 6: The promise continues: He that goes forth and weeps, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him (Psalm 126:6 a). Troubles will not last forever. Just as the Jews returned from Babylon with joy, others like Job, Joseph, and David also saw happiness after much suffering. If we are sad because of our sins or the hardships of life, God promises that we will find joy and peace in the end. Those who live by the Spirit, even in a world full of tears, will one day have eternal life—a harvest of true happiness. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted (Matthew 5:4 b).
