Church Fathers on John 4:38
Say you not, There are yet four months, and then comes harvest?
Now you are expecting a material harvest. But I say to you, that a spiritual harvest is at hand: lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. He alludes to the Samaritans who are approaching.
And he that reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit to life eternal, that both he that sows and he that reaps may rejoice together.
