SCRIPTURE: Matthew (NIV) 9:36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. 38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
Matthew 10:1 He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every disease and sickness.
OBSERVATION: Jesus felt deep concern; he felt compassion for the people, so what was the plan? His plan was to send workers with His message and in His authority.
Jesus wants us to pray for the fulfillment of His desires. Then He will equip and send us in fulfillment of His desires!
APPLICATION: God has sent me to the people around me because He loves them. When I talk to those around me, I am talking to people who were created in God’s image and are greatly loved by God.
PRAYER: Lord, when I am bothered by what someone says or does, remind me of how much you love them and how special they are to you. Amen
