London Mission Sharing

We started our 40 day journey through the New Testament several weeks ago and we are now down to the very last week.  Are you excited that we are almost done?  For those of you that haven’t keep up I don’t want you to feel like a failure.  I just want to encourage you to pick up your Bible and read.  Start now, just start from James and read on.  Reading the Bible doesn’t come natural to anyone, it takes discipline, a lot of discipline.  But discipline is good for us because discipline means delay gratification.  What gratification comes from reading the Bible you might ask?  The satisfaction to know that you have accomplished a goal!  Not only that, continuous reading of God’s Word would build your foundation in any of your decision making.  So to know that you are making the right decision, you will need God’s Word to guide you.

Today our London mission team will give their testimonies.  I know most of us didn’t go, but we are still part of the story.  Remember I said that they were the “going team” and we were the “sending team?”  Today is the opportunity for us to harvest together what God has done through them in London.  As you listen I would like to give you a challenge though, would you ask yourself, can I be part of the “going team” in the future?  I want to encourage you to at least participate in short term missions once, because when you do, you will realize why you didn’t participate sooner.

Moving Forward

We can’t all go on a mission trip, but we certainly can bring the good news of Jesus Christ to those around us.  Would you continue to ask God to give you that opportunity to serve and to share?
