As some of you may know..I’ve been counting down the days till ANDY returns home from the four month discipleship school called PATMOS. It’s crazy to think that in just 22 days, Andy will be a PATMOS graduate.
I am so so so so excited (and I am mean..SUPER DUPER ecstatic!) I have had ZERO communication with Andy for almost 3 1/2 months. I can hardly contain the excitement of being able to see him.
HOWEVER, this past week, the Lord gave me
Psalm 90:12
“So teach us to number our days,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”
I’ve been counting down the days until Andy comes home, but the real question is…
HOW MANY MORE DAYS LEFT UNTIL I RETURN HOME?
While spending time with the Lord on my way back from school, Jesus gently reminded me that HE alone knows when I will take my last breath on earth, and my first breath in Heaven.
“But now they desire a better, that is, a heavenly country.
Therefore, God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He
has prepared a city for them.” - Hebrews 11:16
I am a citizen of heaven just passing through this earthly country. I am waiting for my Beloved Jesus to call me home.
So with that exciting thought in mind, my question to you fellow reader is…
What are we doing with our time?
We have been entrusted with something so precious friends. YOU and I have been given the shoes of peace, the GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST. As the book of 2 Corinthians states, we are His ambassadors, His earthen vessels, and His fragrance. We must spend everyday “persuading men” of the free gift of JESUS that can set them free from the sin and shame they are so desperately trying to find an escape from.
***WE HAVE THE ANSWERS FRIENDS.***
I challenge YOU. Share Jesus with someone TODAY. You don’t have to go on a mission trip, or wait until the next outreach at church. DO IT NOW. There are people perishing right before your eyes.
Tell THEM.
CHRIST IS ALIVE. HE is the hope they’re searching for. HE IS COMING…
coming soon.
Countdown till our return HOME begins…
NOW.
