1 Corinthians 9:10, Plough in Hope
There is reward awaiting the faithful worker. He that sow in tears shall reap with joy. Indeed, he that ploughs should plough in hope. There is an eternal reward but also there is a reward for the faithful servant of God on earth. In the process of threshing of crushing, the straw is crushed and the grain is collected. Just like the worker who would receive his wages for his day’s labour, the man who ploughs and thresheth in God’s vineyard receives reward for his labour.
