Step Up

Matthew 9:37-38 (NRSV):  “Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore ask the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”

Go back and read 35-38. Jesus sent the disciples to do what he did, heal the sick, ease the broken-hearted, restore the demonized, proclaim the gospel. And yet, there is need for more. Everyone has something to do as laborer. We must work while we can, while it is time. We work in our assignment, we pray for others to work in theirs. We work or pray. We work and pray. This is the season to step up and move as he has assigned. This is the season as there is much to be done. As long as we do our part, then we take our place in advancing the kingdom. We are what is prayed for. it’s that season.
