" As my Father hath sent Me, even so send I you." John 20:21
Yesterday, my desire to go to Mongolia was once again triggered because of Dr. Tom Sparrow's preaching on Deutoromy 30:11-20 which focuses on Missions.
This November our church is celebrating its Mission's Month and yesterday's Word was really a good start to make a spark in each believer's heart.
I am so consumed of the desire to preach the gospel, to tell the good news...to give hope to those who are perishing. Just like Jesus, giving what the people really NEED, salvation.
This desire started way back in 2004, when one of my disciple shared that she wants to be a missionary. I was challenged by her boldness to declare such desire because I was really afraid to go out of my comfort zone, church and campus ministry. I thought that those two are enough..I don't really need to be a missionary.
Then, after going to Indonesia for EARC, my eyes was opened to the the world...to the world that needs a Saviour.
Each country shared how they struggle to share Christ, that christianity is still a small percentage in their country, that alot of people are still perishing and dying without knowing Christ...without having a chance to hear the goodnews.
Ftrom there, I know that God has planted a seed in my heart for missions. The Philippines is blessed with alot of workers and believers, and there are still alot of souls waiting to hear the Word, like the country of Mongolia.
I don't know, each time I hear and think of missions, MOngolia would always surface in my mind and spirit.
Someday, if God wills...I will go there and find at least one soul wh's waiting to know christ.
"The great essential of the missionary is that he remains true to the call of God,
and realizes that his one purpose is to disciple men and women to Jesus."
-Utmost For His Highest
Someday...Lord, fan this flame...bring me to where you want me to be.
