“Thus saith he to his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest” (Matthew 9:37-38).
Pondering these verses, I’m reminded of the beautiful song, “My House is Full.” As I recall the words, I can’t help but think how timely it is for today. Many Christians seem content to stay in their little comfort zone. They want to play it safe by staying at God’s table and feasting on His Word.
While this is going on, the harvest of souls goes unattended. We may not be called to go to the regions beyond, but, what about the regions near us? It’s high time we get up and limber up with some harvest stretches. Then get out in the field. While you’re out there, pray for more labourers.
Our mission focus today is Creative Access and the Hanna Project. May we all use our resources and talents wherever the harvest takes us.

PRAY TOGETHER: Day Four of PreEaster Week of Prayer includes these requests.
Creative Access: Praise God for what is being done through one
of our teams in southern Europe. A Bible study has begun with
a Muslim man, and many other Muslims are being touched.
Pray for the young lady carrying the load of this ministry while
missionaries are stateside. Pray for the team ready to leave
for another southern European country. Ask God to provide
the funds soon that they may go. Pray for these needs in all the
areas we are working and partnering: persecution of Christians,
missionaries expelled, discipleship of converts, to discover
effective means to enter these areas and reach people. Pray
for every detail of a mission trip planned into one of these less
accessible countries.
The Hanna Project: The Hanna Project seeks to bring help, hope,
and healing to hurting people around the world. Pray for the
trips planned to impact the lives of people in Kazakhstan, Japan,
Bulgaria, Cameroon, Mongolia, and Côte d’Ivoire this year. Ask
God to use the work of their hands to touch hearts.
