Psalm 126:6 He who goes to and fro weeping, carrying his bag of seed,  Shall indeed come again with a shout of joy, bringing his sheaves with him. (NASB)

Captain Cook, the great English explorer, is said to have taken with him on his many voyages different kinds of seeds from his native land. His crew noted that he would plant them every time he set foot on foreign soil.  He would leave the boat, and without fanfare he would quietly scatter them wherever he thought they would be most likely to thrive.  Thus in faraway places where no British subjects dwelt and no British flag waved, flowers and herbs of England began to flourish.
