It's Harvest
Ingathering Time Again... |
As He walked the
earth, the Ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ brought comfort and
restoration to those who mourned, healing to those who were sick, He fed
those who were hungry, forgave the erring, and showed great compassion
to those who were despised; then He said to us: “In as much as you do
this to the least of these, you do it unto me” Our mandate is clear. We
must do as Jesus did.
