How lucky!

Most of us take forgrented how good we have it.  We go to work each day, maybe go out to eat at lunch, stop at a store sometimes and buy a drink.  All of which is a luxury!!   In some places in the world you are treated like an animal just because of who your parents are or to what caste you belong to.  It breaks my heart to see others being treated this way.  It breaks my heart even more to know that we sit here and do nothing while this is happening not only in india, but so many other countries.  what will it take for us as christians to drop to our knees and pray for these situations that happen all the time!  what will it take for us as gods hands and feet to rise up and do something?  We have been given much in this country...will we give back to those who so despritly need it?!



The fields are ripe for harvest...but where are the workers?



Matthew 9:35-38

New International Version (NIV)

The Workers Are Few

35 Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. 36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. 38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”

treatment of low caste people

treatment of low caste children

Lord i drop to my knees and pray for you to do a mighty thing in india.  i pray for you to do a mighty thing in the middle east.  I pray for your grace and mercy to fall on these people.  I pray that others that would call themselves christians would humble themselves and pray.  i pray that out of our abbundance we have been blessed with, that we would do all we are able to do!  I pray we as christians would be a light to those who only know darkness.

in his holy name i pray,

amen
