Psalm 126:6... He who goes out weeping carrying out seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with him...
Sowing in the morning, sowing seeds of kindness,
Sowing in the noontide and the dewy eve;
Waiting for the harvest, and the time of reaping,
Here is the song that uses this verse as its back drop for encouraging Christians to go out and win souls for the Master. If you are wonder where the first part of the verse is it is in the last verse, verse 3:
Going forth with weeping, sowing for the Master,
Though the loss sustained our spirit often grieves;
When our weeping’s over, He will bid us welcome,
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.
Daughters, you need to be concerned about the lost around you. First concern is yourself, then your fiance for K and potential interests for A. Then your family, and then others. This will always overlap but will never exclude yourself and family. If you cannot imagine being a witness for Christ you either do not love Jesus, "Those who love me obey my commands" "Go out and make disciples", or you do not know what it means to be a witness for him. We won't all be Uncle J's. We may just be your mother types, who grow into wonderful witnesses. When you get the privilege to lead someone to Christ, you will understand the joy that is spoken about in this verse. The only thing better is the filling of the Spirit in your heart and soul.
