Involved

Wow, 14 more days left. God is so amazing. A couple months ago, I thought that I would have a really hard time in the last weeks before I leave. But so far, I have this amazing peace. I know that this is where Jesus wants me for the time being. What a great feeling it is to let go of everything and follow Jesus where He takes me. It's worth the pain of leaving to live in the calling that Jesus has placed on my life to go into all the world and preach the gospel.

Yesterday, I was reading a book called "Elijah- Annointed and Stressed" by Jeff Lucas. This one part really stood out to me.

"Real praying can never say, 'God, would you please get involved with this situation, as I, your passive servant, don't want to bother.' Prayer is a spring board, a trigger that really should carry a government health warning: 'Prayer is risky, and may seriously affect your capacity for ease, comfort and general mediocrity(33)."

God is calling me to action. God is calling me to be involved in what He is doing. How do I respond? Well, I am going to jump into Christ's fullness and embrace all He has for me. Wow, what a priveledge it is that Jesus would even want us to be involved in what He is doing around the world. What an honour it is to follow Jesus and to walk in his footsteps.
