Do not disdain others as they do the work I have assigned them, My child. Though you may see the things they do as trivial or off-course, dealing with issues that seem insignificant or using approaches you wouldn't bother with, remember, My dear one, that My desire is that none should perish. I am reaching out to all who will listen and going to where they are, for they will not come to where you are. I gladly accept all who will volunteer and place them where they will be effective.
I need them to do those things and go those places and act in those ways that you don't, My loving one, because you won't. I didn't create and shape you to do those things, My precious one. You were shaped and molded to do what I have given you to do. Each of My workers are placed in the harvest field that I have designated for them.
When you look up from your work and gaze across the fence at someone working in a different field, with a different type of crop, using a different set of tools, do not disparage them because they are not like you, My love. Encourage them as fellow-workers and comfort them even as you have been comforted, acknowledging and validating the work they are doing.
There are those who, rather than harvesting as you are, appear to be trampling down the crop. They are still in My service, so pray for them as you continue working where I have placed you. Each one is My servant, and I am working out My will in them and through them.
Pray for those I bring your way, and deal with their needs through the abundance I provide you; always know that I am the Lord of the harvest.
May you praise the Lord with your whole heart as you tell of His wonders, and sing glad praise with rejoicing to the name of the Most High, for the Lord, sitting on His throne, has judged righteously by rebuking the principalities and destroying the wicked, causing your enemies to stumble and perish as they turn back, and upholding your right and your cause, bringing endless ruin upon His foes so that even the memory of them perishes. Psalm 9
May you rejoice as the Lord establishes His throne in your heart forever, reigning in justice and governing with fairness. Psalm 9
May you find the Lord to be a refuge when you are oppressed and a stronghold in times of trouble, for all who know His name trust in Him Who has never forsaken those who seek Him or abandoned those who turn to Him. Psalm 9
May you sing praises to the Lord, enthroned in Zion, and proclaim among the people what He has done in your life, for He Who requires equity for injustice and an accounting for wickedness remembers the cry of the afflicted poor and does not forget the prayers of the humble oppressed. Psalm 9
May you have the wisdom to prefer a blameless walk of integrity, though poverty may be a companion, over wealth gained by deceit and perverse speech, which is only chosen by those who are mislead. Proverbs 19:1
May your enthusiasm be guided by knowledge and tempered with understanding, and may you patiently wait on the prompting of the Spirit to open the door and show you the way. Proverbs 19:2
