As we look at what Christ clearly commanded, many of us still cling to the comfort of our favorite chair, scared of the task set before us. But what Christ has called us to do, while intimidating in thought, could never be so bad that we would not receive a blessing by following as He leads.

Christ gave us clear instructions: “GO!” So why are we still sitting? We have glorious news, news that should always spill from our lips, yet I find I’m silent too often. There is a world crying out to us Christians as they struggle to live in this world, people who are hungry. We can meet their physical need for nourishment and Christ can meet their need for “soul food”.

We may not all be called to missions, but we can support missions. We can support missions in many different ways. God has blessed you in some way. Be a blessing to others.

In the words of Caedmon’s Call : “maybe you’ve got money, maybe you’ve got time, maybe you’ve got a Living Well, that ain’t never running dry…share the well, share with your brother, share the well, my friend.”

If we are the body
Why aren’t His arms reaching?
Why aren’t His hands healing?
Why aren’t His words teaching?
And if we are the body
Why aren’t His feet going?
Why is His love not showing them there is a way?
There is a way
