I share this homeward-bound moment to tell you that God is looking for messengers who are willing to be on assignment for Him. He is looking for the “whoevers” to step up and say “Pick me to help You carry out Your divine plans for this world. His plans for us were given to us by Jesus “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone.” (Mark 16:15) And, what is that Good News? John told us in his exhortation from John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that whoever believes in Him, would not perish but have everlasting life.” Now, that’s Good News and it’s also a homeward-bound reality!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once upon a time, I felt pressured to share my faith. We handed out gospel tracts at events, street corners and even went door-to-door sharing the Good News. Though many were pros at it, It sure wasn\u2019t my comfort zone. Now, my way is to be in the moment, being relaxed and waiting for the heaven-to-earth obvious timing — an open door or an unquestionable nudge — to be a light \u2013 God\u2019s light to others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week in Red River, NM, I blogged that a store owner had her Bible underneath a basket of crosses. She was overtly displaying her faith. Another store in that town was called \u201cThe Way\u201d with a scripture message posted on their front window. They were overtly sharing their faith. I often wear a cross necklace or a t-shirt with a gospel message on it. Now, I wear my “Faith over Fear” face mask. It opened the door for conversation when someone said, “I like your face mask!” BTW, I got mine at Sam Moon’s! Those are ways that we can plant a seed into someone\u2019s life. I guarantee you \u2013 though many shun the Christian faith and Christian people, if those same folks come against hard times or illness \u2013 they search us out because they sense the God-factor in our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What the world needs now is God\u2019s love. How will others know unless they see or hear or feel that love from us? What if a grocery line, a doctor’s office a nail or hair appointment became meeting places for divine appointments? I\u2019ve become a listener to that \u201cstill small voice\u201d for the opportunity to show God\u2019s love or to speak of God’s love. You see, I am overtly sharing the Good News every day in these blogs. I see many of you overtly sharing your faith, too, through your uplifting messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did you know that we have the opportunity to be the answer to someone’s prayer daily by simply staying aware of God’s little nudges — and being His voice and His hands extended to a hurting world that needs His love and peace?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!” Isaiah 6:8.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
