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 9:37, 38 NLT)
While the world population continues to grow those willing to help reach them with the Gospel are seemingly on the decline. There is no mission agency actively turning down qualified applicants because there are too many missionaries already on the international fields. We need to pray every day for God to "send more workers" into the harvest fields where Christ isn't known. And while we're at it...let's ask Him who we can reach in the harvest fields located in our own "back yards."
