due season

“We pray that John’s sacrificial efforts will bear eternal fruit in due season.”

“The privilege of sharing the gospel has often involved great cost. We pray that John’s sacrificial efforts will bear eternal fruit in due season.’

“In due season all that lives returns to dust, making the earth fecund with life. Smell how the air tonight is pregnant with the flowers’ blooms and their bee-sought sweetness.”

When I think of your departure, I think of the scripture of Galatians 6:9, “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

But I believe that, in due season, the historians are going to be much kinder to you than you’re being regarded in this present moment.
