“The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few." (Matthew 9: 37 NABRE)
The world needs desperately the word of God. How do I know? Listen to Jesus: "At the sight of the crowds, his heart was moved with pity for them because they were troubled and abandoned, like sheep without a shepherd." (Matthew 9: 36)
Isaiah wrote:
"The Lord will give you bread in adversity and water in affliction." (Isaiah 30: 20 NABRE) But how can we hear of this promise if there is no one to preach and teach the word? How can one preach or teach unless he is sent? How can one be sent unless his heart is open and generous?
"How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, "Your God reigns!" (Isaiah 52: 7)
"Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion." (Hebrews 3: 15)
Come O Sign of God's love.
