Matthew 9:35-38 - A Plentiful Harvest But Few Workers
35 And Jesus continued to go throughout all the cities and towns, teaching in the synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every kind of disease and infirmity. 36 And when he saw the crowds he had compassion on them because they were distressed and fainting, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 And he said to his disciples. "The harvest is great, but the laborers are few; 38 "therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to thrust forth laborers into his harvest field."
