Real Questions-Real Answers

"Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth.  Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Matthew 28:18-20

Okay so I really need to ask, in hopes of some really honest answers from you.

How are you meeting the needs of those outside your family, the Church and those within your church?

How are you investing in the lives of those who are lost?

Are you able to put aside your selfish desires and wants in order to serve the least of His?

How often do you think of those who are lost and broken? If you do, are you using every opportunity to share Jesus with them?

Finally...

Are you taking an active role within your Church, or, are you a pew filler?

Jesus through Your Word we are learning there really are a rare few of those who have counted the cost and are following You. May those rare few be us.  May we be living reflections of You that go out and make disciples of all nations. Let us not just talk the talk, Jesus, anyone can do that. May we actually walk and live out Your Word. Father, so many will be caught of guard, so many will hear, depart from Me I never knew you. Let that not be said of us. Amen
