Planter. Or harvester?

I thought I would shoot down a quick note to let you know whats been going on with me lately so here it is:
Lately one of the things I have really been struggling and been bothered by is the fact that I haven't been seeing the results in the kids at the ministry. I hate to admit it but I really have been beating myself up for not coming up results. You know everybody has stories about how "Oh this person got saved", and "this person just accepted Christ." So today, we have a team from Wyoming at UYO for the week, and one of the things they were talking about is "are you a planter or harvester?" meaning "do you bring kids to Christ or do you bring kids to the point that when someone does come along and asks them if they want to accept Christ they will be ready because of all the work you did?" I realized I am a planter. And that's pretty hard for me just because I feel responsible for these girls, boys, and young adults, and really every person I come into contact with. I've finally came to the point that I will never do anything but get kids to the point where they feel good about Accepting Christ with just a little push from someone else.
Anyways thats all I can say now I'm tired and need to sleep. :)
