Gospel
Luke 10:1-9
The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few.
The Lord Jesus appointed seventy-two other disciples whom he sent ahead of him in pairs to every town and place he intended to visit. He said to them, “The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest. Go on your way; behold, I am sending you like lambs among wolves. Carry no money bag, no sack, no sandals; and greet no one along the way. Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this household.’ If a peaceful person lives there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you. Stay in the same house and eat and drink what is offered to you, for the laborer deserves his pay. Do not move about from one house to another. Whatever town you enter and they welcome you, eat what is set before you, cure the sick in it and say to them, ‘The Kingdom of God is at hand for you.’”
Reflection
Two thousand years ago our Lord lamented the harvest is great and the labourers are few .He saw so many lost soul and he was moved. Today the same problem. In churches we will see the same people who serve year in and year out. Than there are the lost souls and also those who are christian in name. What can we do to answer Christ call.?
Let us pray
Lord Jesus we pray more people will serve the church so that more people will be save.
Amen
