Hey God’s up to something

So today I had a busy day scheduled.  I woke up this morning excited.  Prayed and asked God to direct every meeting. Asked Him to let His love flow through me.  To get me out of the way.  Read scripture for a minute and then was out the door.

It was a sweet day.  Loved all the conversations I had.

So my second last meeting of the day as I sat a listened I felt like “Hey God’s up to something”.  I pulled back and listened.  Really tried to listen.  And I felt like I needed to share the Gospel, the complete Gospel with them.  After I shared about trusting in Christ I stopped.  I was not going to push it.  I was going to have them go home and hash it out with God a bit.  Decide if they were serious about going after Him.

They sat and then I simply said what are you thinking?  They said how do I do it?  How do I get right with God?  At that point I knew God was up to something.  What a wonderful time seeing this person surrender their heart to God. Cant wait to see what God has in store for them.

God’s probably up to something the question is are you listening?

 

Gospel and my life

I have really been thinking a lot about missions and outreach the past couple of months.  Working with a 9th grade football team in my community really opened up my eyes again to the desperate situation our world is in.

This morning as I was reading in 1 Thessalonians and  God reminded me that the fruit of the gospel is often the result of investing your life into others.  Check this verse out. 1 Thessalonians 2 8

We loved you so much that we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well, because you had become so dear to us.

The questions that must be asked is do I really love those who I am sharing the Gospel with?  If I do then I should also be willing to share my life with them!!!  God, open up my heart to love as you love, to care as you care.  God bring me to the point that I am willing to share and sacrifice my life for others not just for the sake of the Gospel.
