As I was reading my daily Bible today the last few verses really stuck out to me - Matt.9:35-38 "Jesus went through all the towns + villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless,like sheep without a shepherd.Then he said to the disciples,"The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few, ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field""
It really made me think about our 60 days of service. This passage isn't just about preaching the Gospel, Jesus also healed their disease and sicknesses. We are in this 60 days reaching out to the homeless and the hungry, those living in poverty. The work in plenty and the workers are few. I thought about how much more I can be doing, right now for Project Blessing knowing with each person they provided household goods for they also provide a Bible. That box is a source of light to the sick of heart. I know I am asking the Lord of the Harvest to send workers and am being challenged myself to work even harder - What about you? Are you willing to ask God what he wants you to do and step up your game?
