Certainly, this is failing for harvest! Dorothy Day said;

“What we do is very little, but it is like the boy with a few loaves and fishes: Christ took that little and increased it. He will do the rest. What we do is so little we may seem to be constantly failing, but so did Christ fail. He met with apparent failure on the cross. But unless the seed falls into the earth and die, there is no harvest. And why must we see the results? Our work is to sow. Another generation will be reaping the harvest.” That’s it!!!
