Jared and I have been taking a class this semester called Perspectives. It’s a class about God’s vision for believers in living a life of purpose in order to reach the world for Him. Christ lived to the glory of His Father and He wants us to do the same.
We have attended this class for fourteen weeks; meeting once a week for three-hour sessions. It has been good for us to be reminded of His sacrifice for the world. God is going to fulfill His purposes and He invites us to have a part in it.
The class has been informative and encouraging. We have looked at the history of the church and its movements throughout the years. We have heard stories where serving Christ, being faithful, and obedient … even in hard times, has brought blessing.
This class has helped us to refocus and recommit ourselves to what He has set before us to do. We need to think as He thinks, talk as He talks, and act as He acts; and whether we are overseas or stateside God desires to use us to reach the “nations” for His glory.
It’s not about me … and it’s not about us … but it is all about HIM!
Are we doing all that we can to reach the “nations” for His glory; are you?
For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord;
and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.
2 Corinthians 4:5
