A heart for others and their actual needs should be what stirs us 'to the heart' - we are to look on others, not for how they can encourage us, but how we may encourage the. The potential of lives forever changed should drive us, fulfill us, as it did our Lord - many did not respond as this group (later in Jesus' ministry), but it did not change His 'fulfilling sustenance' (doing the will of God and not allowing predictable norms to dictate the possibilities we look for) Our focus is to be looking for God's working (readiness for harvest) realizing He may have been "working on" someone long before we met them.
- Don Lambert
