Where has God called you to serve at this moment in your life? Who is the mission field God has put right in front of you?
I've really been learning that it's not just about what your are called to do. Your life is about serving in the Kingdom here and now as well.
Are you being faithful in the little?
The people of the World are beautiful and broken and longing for Jesus... what greater commission is there then to love on them and bring them to Jesus? The Harvest is plentiful! In America, Europe, Asia, The Middle East, Africa and all over the world. Its in your neighborhood, your work place and the hearts of the people around you everyday.
In the words of Heidi Baker - Love the one in front of you.
Isaiah 49:4-6 "But I said, "I have toiled in vain, I have spent My strength for nothing and vanity; Yet surely the justice due to Me is with the LORD, And My reward with My God." 5And now says the LORD, who formed Me from the womb to be His Servant, To bring Jacob back to Him, so that Israel might be gathered to Him (For I am honored in the sight of the LORD, And My God is My strength), 6He says,"It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant To raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the preserved ones of Israel; I will also make You a light of the nations So that My salvation may reach to the end of the earth."
Preach it Joelle! Love your blog, love you and love Jesus. I absolutely concur with what you have said. I believe we have all been given a mission field and we are to share the love of Jesus with all those whom God puts in our path.
