If i had one wish…i think i’d like for everyone i know to come to a relationship with God through Christ.  As I’m thinking about this post…it’s becoming clear that that should be the main goal of my life as a Christian…to be a light for those around me…for me to sacrifice my best interest for the eternal interest of my friends and family.  I know that it is not me that converts anyone but God’s grace and the Holy Spirit bringing one to salvation…but God has definitely called each of us to lay down our lives and take up our cross and serve one another…so that they would know Him.

Lately I have thought alot about career and family and such…but i can not get my mind off of the greater call God has on my life as his disciple…I have thought lately about missions…and life as a missionary….what must that life be like?  

I do believe that missions does not have to be abroad and that there are lost people right in our own back yard…but i still think about frontier missions…and reaching unreached people groups and how exciting that must be to see God move as only He can…

As for me right now…I am commissioned to make disciples…and to live Holy…and I hope to do these things in an effort to see my one wish come true…that all of those around me would one day know Christ…
