Matthew 9: 38. "God owns the harvest. Ask him to send more workers to help gather his harvest.”
Jesus has been busy, healing and dealing with those critical Pharisees. He is worried about the people. They need a shepherd to lead them to the Father, but he and the disciples can't get to all in need.
I love this sentiment. I pray for the ill, for those who grieve, for persecuted people, but I never think to pray for more people to spread God's word. I will be adding that to my daily prayers.
Prayer: Your people are in great need There is sin and evil intent all around us. Send more loving people to represent You so that all can have the opportunity to find Your glorious kingdom. I love You, and I want to share Your love.
Amen
Two years later, on this date, I joined a small crowd to March for science. I'm feeling the need to have more people to support our quest for the truth. More workers are needed to get God's people united in following His teachings.
