It’s Harvest Time

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. And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours. And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.
(John 4:35-39)

Thought For Today:

It's hard to believe it will be harvest time in a few months. The farmers will hit their fields to gather the crops that they have planted. Jesus said that we need to open our eyes now because, spiritually, the fields are already white for the harvest. Sadly, the church focuses on politics and government instead of the harvest. We are in the people business, and people are our business. People's lives are turned upside down and confused. Some people are homeless and hopeless. They are looking for hope. They are looking for someone to show them a better way. The government can never truly fix people's problems. They can only offer them a temporary solution. But Jesus has given us the answer to life's problems: His Word. So if you will pray and go forth weeping, you shall come again, bring your sheaves. Prayer will bring in the souls who are waiting to be harvested.
