Have you ever seen the movie, The Sixth Sense? The famous line, I can see dead people, rings in my mind. This young boy can see what others can't. I won't ruin it, but he helps another person see them too.
The boy doesn't understand why everyone can't see. As a pioneer, I find that believers don't see lost people. They also don't see where the gospel is not.
The primary things that Jesus tells us to do, are not being done:
Seek and save the lost.
Make disciples.
Preach to the poor.
Take care of the stranger.
People need help identifying, the who. Here is what I do. I look at my circle of peeps, i.e. family, friends, co-workers and extended connections. (soccer, cricket, gym)
I write as many names without qualifying. Then I go further. I ask the questions, Where are lost people? Who needs Jesus? I start writing down places and names.
I watch the news. I drive in different parts of the city. I asks cops where the hot spots are. I pray and listen.
Before you know it you begin to to see lost people. Honestly you will be overwhelmed. The harvest is truly white and ready.
Please pray that God will help you see.
Until next time, go fish.
