Light, i.e. joy and felicity, as this word is used, Esther 8:16 Psalms 112:4, and oft elsewhere. Is sown; is prepared or laid up for them, and shall in due time be reaped by them, possibly in this life, but undoubtedly in the next. And therefore bear your afflictions for Christ with patience and cheerfulness.
