The harvest does not speak of an untimely cutting down of the grain; rather it speaks of it being in its season. Therefore, the life lived by our departed love one should not be viewed as untimely, but in it’s season, the season of God’s choosing. To live fully would involve growing physically, intellectually, and most of all spiritually to have a love and compassion for family. Embracing the appreciation for the one that gave life, gave provision, good or bad; realizing it all is granted possible through the blessings of Jesus Christ.
