On A Mission

"For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.”Mark 8:38 Bible Gateway

Do you realize if you call yourself a follower of Jesus then each and every day you are on a mission, in other words you are a missionary wherever God has you planted.

What kind of enthusiasm do you have for that role? Would you rather not have to ‘preach’ to people and just go on about life? Your life is supposed to be like preaching wherever you are as you represent Christ.

Have you ever been timid about letting others know you are a believer and even more serious, a follower? Or have you met someone who had maybe a Christian bumper sticker or big cross around their neck and started to identify with Christ and how happy you were to see there was another believer and this person changed the subject? It is very weird and uncomfortable because maybe the person was just churched and didn’t want to get into ‘serious conversation’. Anyway today’s verse mentions not being ‘ashamed’ or you could say not be shy about talking about the Lord. Now go shine the light!

PRAYER: Lord I can remember in days past doing what I call the ‘headache’ prayer in a restaurant almost like being ashamed to let people see me pray. Forgive me. I want to go forth with courage to help make a difference in my world. In Jesus’ name. Amen. #Biblegatewayblogger
