Go!

 

    As I turn 69 today, my greatest desire for our amazing grandchildren is for them to know and love Jesus at an early age. Jesus offers great protection and courage in a world that can feel uncertain and unkind. I am more than grateful that our daughters and our sons-in-law are believers.

Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6

     This is also my greatest desire for all of our friends, neighbors and acquaintances. Opportunities to share our faith are important and I pray we will be willing and able to share the Gospel with those in our path. Can you imagine the thought of being a part of guiding someone into heaven? What a privilege. What an honor! To think God uses us to shine with His glory.

Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19

     Therefore, go! Pray for people. Pray for opportunities. Pray to share the great love and hope of our Savior. Take your beautiful feet and go!

How, then, can they call on the one they do not believe in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” Romans 10:14-15

Go!

Jesus,

Give us boldness. Give us the words. Give us the people. We are willing to go. Send us.

Amen
