Overwhelmed
July 17th, 2010 | Posted in » God at Work, My Life / Family
Well, our first full day of ministry here in the Dominican is now in the books. It’s been an overwhelming experience, to say the least, but it’s definitely been good.
Here’s the deal… the overwhelming thought I’ve got right now. If you’re a follower of Jesus Christ, and you’ve never been on an international mission trip, you’ve got to go. The Great Commission is clear:
Matthew 28:19-20
19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
The first part of the Great Commission is to go. The last part is that Christ will be with you. We’ve gone, and we’ve DEFINITELY experienced Christ being with us so far.
It’s amazing to see the need here. And it’s utterly amazing to see how God is working. I’ll detail those ways in posts a bit later.
