I want to thank and praise God for the direction he's taken my life. I have a burden in my heart for the lost and wounded. Not just a feeling of caring but a true hurt in my heart for them and a drive beyond all belief to bring everyone that I can to our Lord Jesus Christ. Paul said in Romans 9:1-2 "I tell the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit. That I have great sorrow and continual grief in my heart." I pray that God gives this same burden to you. As Christians we should have this drive and desire to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ not because we have to, but because we love and care for the lost and wounded. We want to bring them out of the pit of hell and into the joy of eternal life. The great preacher Reverend Charles Spurgeon said it best.... " Lord give us but this priceless boon of faithful servants, fit for thee to reap the harvest of the soul; look down and view how great the harvest, yet the laborers few. Oh haste to help ere we are lost! Send forth evangelist, in spirit strong. Arm'd with thy Word, a dauntless host, bold to attack the bold of ancient wrong and let them all the earth for thee reclaim, to be thy kingdom, and to know thy name." Amen! |

I'm reasonably certain that all believers feel this in some capacity. I believe that once we are born again, we share a common purpose and mission to share this good news we have. I believe that many ignore this for one reason or another and it troubles them for a time and slowly fades away as one gets into their comfort zone of just being secure in salvation and waiting to get to heaven.
Lord, awaken all the saints today! Wake us up from our sleep. Renew in our hearts your desire for us to glorify you with our lives. Don't let us waste our lives sleeping. Convict our hearts of those drifting away with no light to guide them. Lord, call on us again, again, and as many times as it takes for us to realize, we shine the light for them. Amen
Amen, Amen and Amen!
