MAY 26
LOOK ON THE FIELDS

Scripture:  John 3:35 “Say not ye, There are 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.”

    Jesus is encouraging His disciples to look on the fields (referring to the souls of men) for they are perishing.  He tells them to “lift up your eyes”.  Be aware of the need that is great around you!  “Look on the fields”.  See the perishing souls and get involved in trying to reach them for Jesus.
    “The winds blew softly as I traveled on, down a path near the bubbling brook.  Across the meadow to a field I’d known, where in stillness, I began to look.
    I saw a field white unto harvest there, but the reapers were nowhere in sight.   I saw ripe golden grain, but no one would dare, to work in the fields that were white.
    And while looking, I thought of the fields so near.   Of souls that are perishing — Is there no one who cares?  And wondering now with eyes filled with tears, why no one would dare this burden to bear.
    And sitting there it seemed I heard, The voice of the Savior’s gentle plea.  ‘Who will go and work in My fields’ and my heart was greatly stirred.   And with trembling voice I then replied, "Here am I, please send me."
    The phrase used in our text “white already to harvest” means that they are just about gone.  They are past ripe.  The need is so great today in reaching souls for Christ!  So many that live around us, that we work with, that you go to school with are not saved! They need someone to tell them about Jesus and how they can be saved!  
    Lift up your eyes today!  Look on the fields!  When is the last time you told somebody about the saving grace of the Lord Jesus? Souls are perishing, oh won’t you try to tell them before it’s too late?  Will you not answer His call to day by saying, Here am I Lord, send me?
