Reflection

As I reflect on all that has led us to this point, that being full time ministry; I can't help but be blown away by the fact that God wants to use our family. It's a very humbling feeling and one that takes my breath away. It amazes me that no matter how many times we mess up or don't get it right, He still chooses to use us to reach the lost. That goes for all Christ followers, no matter who you are, if you have a personal relationship with Christ, He uses each one of us. How awesome is that? I am so grateful that we serve a loving and merciful God, one that forgives, transforms, and meets us where we are. So, I leave you with these questions. What is God asking you to do? What is your role in the Great Commission? Because we all have a role, it is not a task for just missionaries, church leaders, and pastors, or an optional command, but is for every single Christ follower to obey. Please don't misunderstand me, I do not believe that God will call everyone to overseas missions, but I do believe without a shadow of a doubt, that He calls each one of us to reach the lost and live intentional lives. We just need to come to the place where we give Him complete control of our lives, and be willing to say yes, no matter where He leads.
