Therefore said he unto them, “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth laborers unto his harvest.

Are You a Laborer?


 


Are you a True laborer of God above?


Would you give of yourself anything that you can?


Can you meet even strangers with a smile of love?


Would you befriend your neighbor, be it woman or man?


Would you give up some Earthly comforts to help the poor?


Would you pray for the forgiveness of one who has hurt you?


If you can honestly say yes to these it will not bring you to Heavens door


But it is a beginning these things you should not neglect to do


So do not hesitate to give of yourself and your love.


Do not look down upon your neighbor or the poor.


Pray for the forgiveness of others to God above.


And then add more to this list and as you build on them you find yourself at Heavens door.


When the door swings open you will be invited in


Not because you did the works but because you loved the Lord.


For each good work will wipe away a sin.


And when you are ready, you will hear the words.


I forgive and I also give unto you the gift of eternal life


I will cut Satan down with the power of my sword


And deliver you from all of life’s care and strife.

Another powerful, meaningful write, Lew. Where are the laborers? I think this is where dying to self is important...denying self of what it thinks it should have is perhaps the first step to applying for the "laborer's" job. Not many are ready to die to self just yet!
Your heart's desire to do the Father's will shine's through your work. You will be well rewarded, my friend.

God Bless
Lena

Karma Bank to Following By Listening by Chiemi

These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .

Look for Something Good by Robert Drews

When two men hit the reset button and decide to go out looking for the good in the world, they not only find it but also a lot more. P.S. The title is listed on Amazon under Look for Something Good by Robert Drews (not by Robert H. Drews)
