Mark 16:15Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.We live in a world where there is pain; suffering and sickness all around us. There is pain in the hearts of many around us every day. The sinful environment and life style of the human race has caused normal life to be self seeking and avoidance to hear and accept the only true healing touch for our ongoing repetition of the same type of actions that our parents taught us and we are teaching our children. Pain from thinking testing out relationships before getting married should be normal. The affair is ok if no one discovers what is going on (after all what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas right?) Adultery not only those affected directly by the feelings of betrayal to each other but when their children are involved, the effects can be many and are life lasting effects. Pain and suffering from drug addiction and alcoholism reach deep into many lives, not only for those who are using but also for those who live with and know them. The effects of child abuse are an ongoing cycle that destroys countless lives with terrible suffering and addictive and abusive lifestyles that continue for generations. The list goes on and we all are at least familiar with them if not connected to them. These problems and many more are around us and touch our lives daily. The commission of love sent from God through his son has never changed. He wants us to take the hope of the good news that changed our lives and hand it out as freely as we received it. The same good news that changed and freed us. The good news that is freeing us daily needs to be handed out at every opportunity. We have a great gift handed to us. Not because we earned it nor deserved it. But because God loves us, where we were. Where we are, in the middle of our hurting lives, in the middle of our destroyed and for many of us our helpless lives. He gave us hope. He gave us love and acceptance and offered us a better way to live. So in the middle of a State and Federal government that continue to appear to be more and more anti-Christ, in schools that preaching what they think is protection from fanaticism, not the true freedoms offered by a relationship with Christ. This same good news is the love and freedom he painfully wants us to know and hand out to all. Let’s freely give away what we have been freely. Ephesians 2:10 tells us we are his workmanship. The New Testament Greek word “poema.” God’s poem or his art work, precious to his heart. Made with his own hands, with his own imagination. The verse goes on to tell us that we have been created for good works before the creation of the world in him. The works are ready and waiting for us to go and do.Ask him to lead you.When we are doing what we are designed to do it is like fitting a round peg into a round hole… it is a perfect fit.Ask and you will find, seek and it will be given, knock and it will be opened to you.We will find everything we need at the feet of our savior, in the quiet place of our prayer closet. Visit daily, visit often.If we walk in the light as he is in the light, we will fellowship with one another.
