For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building. 1 Corinthians 3: 9
What I heard from Jesus today is: You are God's field and Jesus' yoke fellow!
The Lord reminds me of a wonderful photo Ignatius took during his short-term mission trip in Ethiopia. The picture capture what Jesus says:
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Matthew 11: 28-30
And also what Paul says in this chapter:
For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building.
1 Corinthians 3: 9
If you are willing then the field you are working for the rest of your life will be the field God wants you to work on and you have Jesus to bear the yoke with you working on you side. But, if we choose to work on our own worldly field then you are working it alone. There would be jealousy, quarreling and all kinds of self-centred motives coming out of that kind of "worldly" mentality. Then someday the whole work will be destroyed because we are working on the wrong field and on our own!
Dear Lord Jesus,
Open our eyes to see the field that you want us to work on and open our mind that we are willing to bear your yoke to be a fellow worker of you. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
