John 4:27-38 - The Disciples And The Harvest
27 At this point his disciples arrived, and they were astonished that he was talking to a woman. Yet no one said, "What do you want from her?" or, "Why are you talking to her?"
28 Then the woman left her water jar and went back to town. She told people, 29 "Come, see a man who told me everything I've ever done! Could he possibly be the Messiah?" 30 The people left the town and started on their way to him.
31 Meanwhile, the disciples were urging him, "Rabbi, have something to eat."
32 But he told them, "I have food to eat that you know nothing about."
33 So the disciples began to say to one another, "No one has brought him anything to eat, have they?"
34 Jesus told them, "My food is doing the will of the one who sent me and completing his work. 35 You say, don't you, "In four more months the harvest will begin?' Look, I tell you, open your eyes and observe that the fields are ready for harvesting now! 36 The one who harvests is already receiving his wages and gathering a crop for eternal life, so that the one who sows and the one who harvests may rejoice together. 37 In this respect the saying is true: "One person sows, and another person harvests.' 38 I have sent you to harvest what you have not worked for. Others have worked, and you have adopted their work as your own."
