Let us go forth—On our great mission of love and mercy.
Into the field—Into the world, which needs us so much.
Let us lodge—Take up our temporary dwelling-place.
In the villages—“Have thou authority over ten cities!” “The tabernacle of God is with men.”
7:12. Let us get up early—In the dawn of the New Age.
To the vineyards—The hearts of mankind in general.
Let us see if the vine flourish—If men are beginning to draw nigh to God.
The tender grape appear—If there is promise of an ultimate fruitage pleasing to the Father.
And the pomegranates appear—If there are evidences that love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, meekness, are going to abound.
There—When you see with what infinite patience and wisdom and love I cultivate the heart-gardens of men.
