ARE WE
LOOKING
“Say
not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto
you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to
harvest.”
John
4:35 (King James
Version)
Jesus is telling us
in our Scripture verse that people are lost in their sins and they need to be
saved now, not in four months. There are
also many Christians who are lonely, discouraged and hurting and they need to be
encouraged. I think if we will be honest
all of us have needed to be encouraged.
Are we looking for
people who need Jesus and for people who need to be encouraged? If so, how hard are we looking? Being addicted to the television set has
taken many people away from serving Jesus.
There are also some people who turn on the television as soon as they get
up and it stays on all day.
How sad that there
are people who watch television most of the day instead of looking for those who
are lost without Jesus and are hurting and discouraged. One day, every one of us will stand before a
Holy God and give an account of what we did with Jesus. Are you serving Jesus? If not, why aren’t
you?
Heavenly Father, I
pray that You would impress upon our heart the urgency of telling people about
Jesus. May we dedicate our life, all of
our time, our talents and all that we have to serve the One Who loves us so much
that He died for our sins. Help us to
make a special effort to encourage our pastors.
Amen.
