Thought For Today - March 4, 2024
Ripe Unto Harvest!
By: Robert A. Searles
"And
Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their
synagogues and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every
sickness and disease among the people. But when he saw the multitudes he
was moved with compassion on them because they fainted, and were
scattered abroad having no shepherd.” Matthew 9: 35,36.
Jesus
sees the multitudes that are in the world today who are fainting and
scattered abroad , and have no shepherd, and are spiritually starving
for words of compassion and comfort. When Jesus ascended into heaven, he
gave his disciples the great commission to go into all the world and
preach his gospel of salvation; and to heal the sick; to comfort the
weary; and to bring hope of eternal life to the lost.
They,
through the word of God, have passed this great commission down to us
today. All who call themselves Christians have been given this great
responsibility to continue the ministry of Jesus here on earth. until he
returns for his church.
One
only has to look upon the world conditions today to see the multitudes
in need of teaching and spiritual leadership. The harvest is truly white
and ready, but who will answer the call, who will go? The call for
laborers has been issued, the need is great, but few are those who
answer the call.
Some
one has wisely said: "None of us can do everything, but all of us can
do something, and what we can do we ought to do" all for the glory of
God to draw all men and women, boys and girls to a saving knowledge of
Christ.
"Then
saith he unto his disciples, the harvest truly is plenteous, but the
laborers are few, pray ye therefore, the Lord of the harvest that he
will send forth laborers into his harvest." Matthew 9: 37,38.
