Luke 10:2
“The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest.”
--------------------------------------------------------
Jesus viewed the whole world as His harvest field. With all of us as His “potential harvest”. It is the harvest season and He knows that all his harvests will be ruined if he did not harvest now. Many souls will perish without hearing his message of the kingdom of God.
But the harvest workers were few.
So, He is depending on all of us to work for Him in spreading the good news. As Christians, we are called to go into the world and proclaim the good news to all of creation. We are to proclaim that the kingdom of God is at hand. We are to proclaim the Gospel, showing people that it is through faith in Jesus Christ that we gain access to the kingdom of God.
The kingdom of God gives us true joy and peace and the love of God while on earth. But that’s not all. The kingdom of God is our eternal home. It gives us a clear destination and direction of life. It gives us a living hope in this troublesome world. When we accept Jesus in our hearts, we have the promise of heaven as our everlasting inheritance.
Whenever we have the opportunity to proclaim the kingdom of God, grab it! Proclaim Him in every situation. Proclaim Him no matter how unpleasant the situation is.
For truly, the Kingdom of God is at hand!
Let us pray +
O Risen Lord, You love us so great that not only did You want to save us, but You want to involve us in Your own salvation and in the salvation of our family and friends – even those we don’t know. From the beginning of time, You wanted us to be Your co-redeemers. Help us fulfill the mission You would give us, that is, to bring the good news of salvation to the whole world. Amen +
I believe that I shall see the good things of the Lord…
