Today I am thankful for Missions. I never thought of myself as a missionary. I thought that would require living in a foreign country and baptizing people. And I just didn't see myself doing that.
Now I am a missionary.
I don't live in a foreign country and I have never baptized anyone, but I am on a Mission none-the-less!
Since joining my current church over 8 years ago, I have traveled to Honduras several times, worked at boxing events, cleaned out horse stalls, sat in tense meetings, and decorated an auditorium - all for the purpose of doing the Lord's work.
Everyone how knows the Lord can be a missionary. All it requires is a willingness to answer His call. Is there a neighbor who needs their lawn mowed? A stranger who needs a door opened for them? A family member who seems to be searching for God?
If you see a need and meet it, in the name of the Lord, you are a missionary!
John 13:35 "By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."
Just love each other, people. That's what it's all about. Love the un-loveable because that's what Jesus did for us.
