“Jesus traveled through all the towns and villages of that area, teaching in the synagogues and announcing the Good News about the Kingdom. And he healed every kind of disease and illness. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them because they were confused and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. He said to his disciples, “The harvest is great, but the workers are few. So pray to the Lord who is in charge of the harvest; ask him to send more workers into his fields.””
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭9:35-38‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Jesus describes the "kingdom of God" as something that grows. The kingdom of God in heaven has no need for growth; it is perfect and complete in every way. But the kingdom of God on earth is imperfect and incomplete; growth is very important. To convey this, Jesus makes an analogy to farming. The desire of every farmer is for their crops to be mature and numerous. It is not much use to have an abundance of crops if the crops do not grow to maturity. And, it is not much consolation to have mature crops if there aren't enough people to harvest them.

Will you harvest? Will you be the one to teach and announce the Good News? Will you heal the sick? Will you have compassion on the confused and helpless? Are you willing to be the hands and feet of Christ? Choose today to grow up and mature in Christ so that you can be the one to help bring in the harvest.

All In!!!
