He travelled about,
teaching in their
synagogues,
proclaiming good
news.
Jesus wept for them:
like sheep without a
shepherd,
helpless and
harrassed.
Call out to the
Lord,
more labourers are
needed;
the harvest awaits.
So much to be done
to bring peace,
healing, wholeness,
forgiveness and
hope.
The time had
arrived.
He called the twelve
together,
gave them the
challenge.
Heal, bring life and
love,
show them the
kingdom is near.
Teach them about
God.
Do it in my name.
Show God's
generosity,
don't expect
payment,
Bring in the
harvest;
gather the people
who love
into the kingdom.
