"The Harvest is Plentiful"

Matthew 9:37–38

Jesus’ instructions to ask for more workers to be sent out stems from His infinite compassion. If we want to be like Jesus, we have to have tender, submissive hearts that long to reach out to a fallen world. And of course, we can’t only pray for other workers to be sent out to preach the Good News … we have to be willing (and brave enough) to step up ourselves!

Questions for further thought:
1. What are the problems in this world that make you sense how desperately the world needs Jesus?
2. In what specific ways can you step up and be Jesus?  

​Challenge: Identify three people you know who need the Good News and/or have physical needs that you or Hillcrest can help fill; pick one to talk to this week.
