LORD OF THE HARVEST | Debbie Taylor Williams

“Then He (Jesus) said to His disciples, ‘The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.”

Matthew 9:37-38

Does the word “work” scare you in relation to serving the Lord? For instance, when a pastor announces, “We need more workers for Vacation Bible School or to go on a mission trip, do you sink lower in your pew and hope your eyes don’t meet his? How much of a “worker” for the Lord of the harvest are you? Jesus wasn’t trying to get his disciples involved in ministry to do busy work. Rather, Jesus looked at the people and felt their hurts. He had compassion for them. And, He had good news. “Sins can be forgiven! God can help you overcome despair. You are not alone.” Jesus still has a message of good news and there is still a need for workers to go into God’s field. Will you be one of them?

LORD OF THE HARVEST, thank You for seeing us and feeling compassion. Thank You for sending worker to us to tell us about You. I praise You!
