The importance of Spreading the gospel

Hello everyone,

I hope all is well.  As I meditate this morning, all I can think about is why we’re here, how we can spread the gospel and how we can have joy within ourselves each day.

God is so wonderful that He sent His son to die for our sins, to show us how to deal with pain and challenges and to allow us to witness faith, love and hope.  Jesus came so that we may live and to have peace while living.  He left us with a mission to walk with the cross and to be the light for all to see Him through us even through the battle.

He didn’t say it was going to be easy because life is really a sacrifice to give hope and love even when we’re hurting the most.  The good news is we get to have peace, we get to help others, we get to witness His divine mercy and we get to share the gospel.  It can’t get any better than that.

The fact is sometimes we don’t want sacrifice or endure pain, sometimes we get tired of doing the right thing and sometimes we just want to live without having to do so much.  This is why it’s so important to refresh our relationship with God daily so that we can gain wisdom, understanding and have strength to get through tough times.  (Most importantly, wanting to follow the right path in Jesus Name)

We are here to be that light because so many people are going through things and are in darkness.  Can you image being in a room pitch dark and can not see?  This is happening today, people are living with no light, don’t know which way to turn and can’t even see life through God’s lenses.  When we share our light, it gives hope to not give up through the most challenging times. 

If we really want to do the works of God or follow His mission, let’s start with loving our neighbor, treating people the way we want to be treated, forgiving others when they do us wrong and standing firm when the battles or struggles come so that others can witness our faith.

This life that we were given by God is a blessing and when we don’t make it about us but more about the mission, we flourish and nourish our bodies to make a difference in another person’s life.  We have joy and the ability to have peace on our journey.  We all went through or are going through something. Let’s continue to share God’s love because we never would have made it this far without God.
