The proper time to reap

Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

A prayer

Almighty God,
you called us to labour in your vineyard:
Keep us faithful in your service,
whether the harvest is plentiful,
or the soil seems barren and our labour unprofitable;
knowing that the harvest is yours,
and you will reap in your own appointed time;
to the glory of your holy Name.
