GOD PROMISES
EVERY BIRD HIS WORM, BUT HE DOES NOT TOSS IT INTO THE NEST.
That's what the caption says above the cardinal. Another expression urging the Go- Mission as our pastor has been preaching about for the last few weeks is "Prayer has feet."
I like all the expressions that encourage. Another one from The Truth Project is in the form of a question: "Do you really believe what you really believe is true?" And if so, how would that change your life?
If we really believe there is a heaven and hell, if we really believe Jesus is the only way to secure an eternity in heaven with Him and the Father, then why don't we take a more active role in evangelism? Why don't we try to warm or help win the lost? Especially our family, our friends, our co-workers, our neighbors, our acquaintances?
It perplexes me why we don't. And a heavy emphasis on we, or more pointedly--me.
In my next entry, I'll try to get out of my nest. I'll attempt to show you how you can get out of yours. There's a lot of kingdom work to be done. We've put it off long enough.
