Who will go?

I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?”
I said, “Here I am. Send me.”

Isaiah 6:8

If any of you wants to be my follower, you must turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross daily, and follow me.

Luke 9:23



After spending some time at the small county fair of where i grew up, it was very easy to tell those who have god in their heart, and who doesn't.  i might have been making an assumption, but there were crowds standing around smoking and cussing, seeming to be having a grand time.  Then i watch my daughters gleefully run from ride to ride having a bawl.  In watching them i see jesus.  I can almost see him running after them.  I am also reminded that to those who much is given much more will be required.  God has blessed me and i rejoyce and am glad.  The only thing i could think about walking around watching how others act, is i wanted to shout it for them all to hear that Jesus is lord of all!  I wanted to shout that he didn't care where they were, or where they had been, that he loved them anyway.  I wanted to shout that he wants to know then personally.  


Father help me to know the right words to say when you would have me speak about your love, and salvation.  Help me to turn from the ways in my own life that don't bring you glory!  Here i am lord, Send me!  I pray for all those that attended that fair.  Those that know you and those who don't.  I pray that you would meet all of them where they are.  That you would let them know you love them!

in jesus name amen!
