People" |
| "And Jesus went
about all the cities and villages, teaching in their
synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and
healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with
compassion on them, because they fainted, and were
scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. 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 9:35-38) |
