Consumed by the call

Setting foot down into the earth,
I turn and look around
I see the world
broken
hurting
in need of a savior.

Though some don't know it, they all need Jesus Christ.
Christ has so radically changed our lives,
taking out hurt, guilt, and pain,
shouldn't we wish it for others?
No. We shouldn't WISH it, we should SHARE it.

People say, "But if God is Love, how come he sends people to hell?"

God doesn't send people to Hell, they choose it for themselves to be separated from God by not following Christ. My heart breaks for those. My heart breaks for the lost. My heart breaks for those who will have to spend eternity apart from God because nobody shared the word of Christ with them.

I know my assignment. My life has a purpose. I'm supposed to be one of the people who makes first contact with the tribes in Peru and Brazil's Amazon. I will stop at nothing to see these people see Christ. Yes, it's going be be a long time before I'm prepared to fulfill my mission, but everything I do is in preparation of that day. I know while I'm here, God had a purpose when He decided to put me in one of the most under-churched areas in the USA. That needs to change. We cannot afford to have where we live be under-churched. We need to reach out, conqure our fears, and share our faith with others. THEIR ETERNITY DEPENDS ON IT! Swallow your pride. I say that because it's something I need to do to. It's a continuous battle. To live for whats right. To strive for purposes greater than yourself. All for Christ. We NEED TO BE CONSUMED BY THE CALL! WE CANNOT AFFORD ANYTHING LESS!

Peace be with you.
In His Grip,
