We are here for such a short time. A short time with much work to do. May He find us faithful to the task set before us. 

"..the Lord appointed seventy-two and sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to go. And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest. Go your way; behold, I am sending you out as lambs in the midst of wolves.. Luke, Chapter 10

My children gather, but often do not harvest. Much time is spent in trivial pursuits yet harvesting is ignored. Pray into the harvest. It is ripe. Now is the time to pray! Gathering is collecting, acquiring. Harvesting is collecting what has been intentionally grown. We can gather many things, possessions, trinkets, pleasures....yet the harvest of souls is something few pursue. 

As we too busy gathering to harvest?
