Bufe reads what happens on an average day in America.  Lots of energy, money, and trauma going on each day just in our country.  But then think about the rest of the world.  We only live in part of the world.  Jesus died for the whole world.  We need to tell the whole world about Jesus.  The world has lots of needs - hunger, loneliness, bewildered with life, but the most important need they have is for salvation through Jesus Christ.  Jesus talked about the waiting harvest.  We are the people who have to go to work in the harvest.  

Psalm 136, Matthew 9:38-39, Luke 7, Mark 1, John 4
