There are points in our lives...

"There are points in our lives
 When we have to let go,
 To move from where we are
 Leave everything familiar
 And submit to a call that is undeniable."

Are we willing to count the cost? To reach out to the sick and poor. Caring more for their souls than our health? ARE WE READY TO DIE FOR THE NAME OF JESUS?

 I read a story of a young man that became a martyr for Christ. He was on a mission trip to Peru and the Lord showed him that he was going to give his life for Christ. He came back carrying a terrible infectious disease, that he died from. But, even knowing that he was dying he made every opportunity to share Christ to the nurses. He didn't let the circumstances take away his joy and hope in Christ. 

BJ's story really taught me a lesson I wont soon forget. 

John 13:38 Jesus asks "Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake?" 

In this verse Jesus was talking to Simon Peter, but this is the question he comes to every one of us and asks. He keeps asking us. Are you willing? Are you willing? These are some of the things God has been speaking to me about this past week. 

Isaiah 6:8

"Whom shall I send? Send me."
