If you’ve been following my posts this week, you know I’ve been on the road. Six cities in four states by car and plane. One thing connects them all…need. From the smallest towns to the largest cities there are desperately needy people.
Also in every place there are people dedicated to helping those in need. Churches, non-profit groups, government agencies. And without exception there is far more need than these local groups can handle. That’s where youth missions come in. For all the benefit your group might get from traveling away from home and having an adventure together, the impact is exponentially increased when that adventure is anchored in sharing the love of Jesus with strangers in need.
It’s impossible to overstate the power of faith in action. Especially when it’s demonstrated to strangers by strangers for no other reason than we are loved by Jesus and are compelled to share that love.
From a purely human perspective I have no vested interest in seeing people helped in Indianapolis, Columbus, Manassas, Nashville or anywhere else because I don’t live in those cities. So why does the passion burn in my heart to make a difference everywhere? It can only be God’s Spirit at work as I seek to look through his eyes.
Today I travel home to Colorado but I don’t intend to stay there. I will be on the road again and pray that you will join me as you answer the urging of God to make a difference!
