Ready... Action

Hey family!  What a blessing you all are in our lives.  We could not do anything without the love, support, kind words and ultimately prayers from each of you.  We are blessed to have such an amazing team with us all the time and it is an honor to be able to work alongside you as we all together spread the love of Jesus Christ!!  I have been reading 2 Peter and finished chapter 3 yesterday.  It was again a reminder that our time on this Earth is short and "the day of the Lord will come like a thief" 2 Peter 3:10.  We do not know when our Lord is to return, but we best be ready and waiting for Him.  There are days when I feel I am not progressing in the ways I should be and not spreading the knowledge of the love and salvation of Christ like I should.  As DC Talk so cleverly puts it, "The single greatest cause of atheism in the world today is Christians who acknowledge Jesus with their lips but deny Him with their lifestyle."  This is not a call to silent action but rather a call to action.  Are you sharing your freedom with those around you?  Are you sharing this love with your family?  Are you praying for God to open the hearts of those closest to you?  I pray each of you will proclaim the Gospel with love even to those who may be scariest to reach (your family).  I lift you all up in this endeavor knowing our time on this Earth is short and we must be like the virgins waiting for their bridegroom (Matthew 25).  Do not be like the foolish ones who did not take any oil with them but rather be ready and prepared for the coming of the bridegroom.  "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour." Matthew 25:13

Lots of love to all of you!
