Luke 10:1-12
The Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them out ahead of him, in pairs, to all the towns and places he himself was to visit. He said to them, ‘The harvest is rich but the labourers are few, so ask the Lord of the harvest to send labourers to his harvest.
So when you are about to step on the stage, what do you say to yourself. Maybe it is not the stage but before you open your car door or step into that class. Whoever we are and wherever we are, we all step into a role.
Most of you know that I am a nervous preacher. As I step to read the Gospel I nervously say “Lord I am scared, take over, take over” and it’s game time!
I have to say I was sent because he wants to visit this place, this soul. All He asks is I ready it. You have been making ready the visit of our Lord all along. Some of us do it in accounting, some of us in teaching and others in the medical field. Understand yourself as SENT and it changes everything.
