The farmer and the field

On my journey to northwestern Uganda I keep seeing individual women out in the fields, sometimes with a few small children nearby, and a hoe in her hands, and I think of two Biblical sayings, summarized below:

1. The harvest is plenty, but the workers are few. Matthew 9:37

2. You reap what you sow. Galations 6:7

These two sayings seem so much more real here among the primitive agricultural and farming techniques.                                                                                                                       9.24.12
