“Harvest”

Blessings Folk!

Today’s reading:

Matthew 9:35-38
Mark 6:6b
Luke 8:1
John 4:35

Jesus went...through all the cities and the villages.
Jesus taught...in their synagogues.
Jesus proclaimed...the gospel of the kingdom.
Jesus healed...every kind of disease and every kind of sickness.
Jesus saw the people...and felt compassion.

The People were distressed.
The People were dispirited.
The People were like sheep without a shepherd.

This is the work of the Kingdom.
Jesus set the example.

People today are distressed and dispirited.
The sheep picture means little to most of fus.
Sheep will wonder about without a shepherd.
Sadly, far too many men seek to shepherd in the flesh.
What is needed is greater obedience to The Shepherd.

Jesus saw all this and turned to His disciples.
The harvest is plentiful.
Workers are few.
Beseech..seek the Lord of the harvest.
Seek Him to send out workers into His harvest.

We are a portion of His harvest.
We are His workers.
Go.
Teach.
Proclaim the Gospel of the Kingdom.
Heal.
Manifest the compassion of the Lord.
