Topic: The Laborers Are Few
Scripture: Luke 24: 48-49
When Jesus says that the harvest is abundant but the laborers are few, do you think he was only talking about his time here on earth, or was he talking about now as well? If statistics are correct, most people who identify themselves as Christian do not attend church on a regular basis.
Where are the others? Where are the laborers who should be gathering the harvest? We need to pray for men and women to answer the call to minister to God’s people but we also need to pray for ourselves to reach out to those who don’t understand the value of what we have.

I’m not dismissing the value of those of us who are professionals in the faith department! But I am suggesting that each of us as friend and relative has more influence than we think. We understand how our faith gets us through the tough times. How we welcome the support of our community in times of joy as well as sorrow. Daily Devotional For Today 7 July 2022
