They are lost and they are dying and we have to do something about it
In James 4:13-14 it says you are a mist for a little time and then vanishes, I do not know anything about tomorrow what it may bring but God knows. Tomorrow is the start of another week, I am only here for a mist of time. Seize the day, because tomorrow could be too late for some of the people I come across. I pray that I will take the oppurtunity to talk to these people, and God can push me aside and speak through me. The Christian life is about sacrifice, not pleasure not comfort. While we are sitting at home chilling watching television. God is hearing the cries of the hurting. Being here is not comfortable, not easy, and sometimes it is not fun. I could have stayed home, not come here into a heat index of 105 times humidity. That's the mindset of too many, people are hurting all around us, and our churches are the greatest resource in the country, the government will never solve the problems. The answers lie within the vaults of the church. But too often we are not God reliant, but self-reliant, which only leads to self-indulgence. "God I cry out to you, we want you, not to die to our own but to you. God, I need you now, this is all that I am. Now with my dirty hands I give you everything, everything that I am. I need you, they need you."
