Here’s another thought from Jesus’ sending out the 70 in Luke 10.

After this, the Lord Jesus formed thirty-five teams among the other disciples. Each team was two disciples, seventy in all, and he commissioned them to go ahead of him into every town he was about to visit. He released them with these instructions: “The harvest is huge and ripe. But there are not enough harvesters to bring it all in. As you go, plead with the Owner of the Harvest to drive out into his harvest fields many more workers. Now, off you go! I am sending you out even though you feel as vulnerable as lambs going into a pack of wolves. (Luke 10.1 – 3, Passion Translation)

70 men sent out on a successful mission:

When the seventy missionaries returned to Jesus, they were ecstatic with joy, telling him, “Lord, even the demons obeyed us when we commanded them in your name!” (Luke 10.17, Passion Translation)

70 men, and we don’t even know their names. Maybe they were among the 120 in Acts 1, but we don’t know their names either. Most of us will serve, as the hymn says, “unpaid, unloved, unsought, unknown.”

And do you seek great things for yourself? Seek them not. Jeremiah 45.5, ESV)
