When he (Jesus) saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.

Jesus says, “Come, follow Me.” Following Jesus requires active service, love, and self-sacrifice, rather than passive observation. Will you choose to obey and follow Jesus? Will you center your daily life on the teachings of Christ rather than simply believing in His name, focusing on the active, obedient, and transformative nature of authentic discipleship?

Jesus said, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.

The women who followed Jesus went to the tomb to complete the burial rituals, but Jesus' body was gone. Jesus asks, " Who is it you are looking for?" Thinking he was the gardener, she said, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will get him." Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, "Rabboni!"

From noon until three in the afternoon darkness came over the whole land. About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" that is, "My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?"
