On Mission

As I write this post, I am on a mission trip to Kansas. I am with a group of wonderful college students, their leaders and my husband. The students have been working on the campus of a small university, cleaning flower beds, trimming bushes, raking and other outdoor types of work. As for my husband and me, our responsibility has been to drive the van/bus and to shop and cook for the guys. We have all been trying to form relationships with new people and show the love of Christ in both words and action. 
If you've never been on a mission trip, I can assure you it is NO VACATION! It can be very stressful and downright exhausting!!! You may be wondering why I am telling you about this. Here's why: God calls each and every one of us to get up off of our comfy couches, get OUT of our comfort zone, and GO! It may be That He wants you to go across the street to visit a lonely neighbor. Maybe you need to go to "the other side of the tracks", so to speak", and form relationships with people who are not like you. maybe you need to go to another city, state or even to another country. God is calling. There are millions, YES, I said MILLIONS, of people who do not know Jesus personally. They have no relationship with Him and are, therefore bound for eternal hell. It is MY responsibility and YOUR responsibility to GO and TELL them of Christ's love.

      14 How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher? 15 How will they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news of good things!”

                                                      Romans 10:14-15 | NASB

How do YOUR feet look to Jesus?

  
              (yes, I know I need a pedicure!) 
My feet are sort of ugly to me, but in God's eyes they are beautiful!
   HIS OPINION IS THE ONLY ONE THAT REALLY MATTERS!!!
