Sow for yourselves righteousness; reap steadfast love; break up your fallow ground, for it is the time to seek the LORD, that he may come and rain righteousness upon you.
Cultivating abandoned fields is hard work. Restoring culture to an abandoned building requires resurrection as much as it does construction. The fallow ground of Christian culture will prove difficult to break through due to years of neglect it has endured; but don’t give up. Fruitful fields of multiplying yields will be inherited by those following in our footsteps. Thirty, Sixty and Hundredfold fruitfulness is set to follow. Our hard work may see no immediate fruit, but it will provide our progeny the privilege of gazing over and being grateful for fruit-bearing fields. Our work in the wilderness will pave the paths of the gardens of our great grandchildren.

1 Corinthians 15:58
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
