Where Are the Laborers?

NOT only may it be said that the fields are white for harvest, and the laborers are few, but the harvest is perishing, and the laborers are less than few. Lovers of the present truth, consider your duty in this matter. The Lord said, Pray. Are you doing it? And when you pray for the Lord to raise up laborers to go forth into his harvest, consider what you can do toward accomplishing the result for which you pray. Bro. H. S. Gurney writes from Memphis, Mich.—
“In every direction from this place, east, west, north, south, within a circle of twenty miles, there are calls for labor. The cry is, Send some one here. I gave three discourses twenty miles west of here. One family of influence have commenced to keep the Sabbath. They want a course of lectures. But where are the laborers? If some one could come here, I could help them to fields of labor that look fruitful. I rejoice that the work of God seems prosperous in the hands of his servants. I am well pleased with the enlargement of our paper, and the seeming courage of the worn instruments at the Office. May God’s blessing continue, and may we all be aroused to lay hold of this work in earnest.”
