White Fields
Devotions:
“Then saith he unto 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 KJV
“Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.”
John 4:35 KJV
Our vision must be on eternity. Not on the immediate, temporal. What we do here on earth, even if it is to become the richest person on earth, is temporary and meaningless in it's self. Only when our thoughts and actions are tempered by eternity, always asking, What is the eternal effect to what we are doing? Does it take on real value.
The only thing of truly eternal substance is the kingdom of God and bringing people into the kingdom through Jesus. If in your life you live 70 or 80 or 90 years or more when you get to the end first of all it will seem so short and secondly if you have lived only for yourself your life will be empty and wasted. If you live for God and His kingdom in Jesus, your life will be rich and fulfilled. The choose is yours!
