Luke 10:2 NLT
These were his instructions to them: “The harvest is so great, but the workers are so few. Pray to the Lord who is in charge of the harvest, and ask him to send out more workers for his fields.

Personal Challenge...
Having been working in Haiti as a missionary for two years now I am just beginning to understand the urgency of this verse. There is so much work that needs to be done in the world around us. We are called to reach out to the lost, the orphans, the widows, the homeless, the hungry. But we are not just called to reach out to them, but we are commanded to lead the lost to a home in Christ, to take care of the orphans and widows, to provide shelter for the homeless, and to feed the hungry.

Some of us can do that by going to where the needs are and giving of ourselves to meet these needs. But some cannot go, however, they can be senders...providing for the needs of those who do go with their wealth and their time in prayer. Please be a support system for those in your life that you know are the "go'ers". Support and encourage the workers of the harvest.
