WHAT IS
YOUR MISSON IN LIFE?
By
Robert Courtney
Businesses
are always looking for ways to influence its employees to a better
standard of work ethics to improve productivity, quality and less
product cost. Training is provided to educate the workforce. This
effort is then developed and refined to create a “mission
statement” for each department and for the company. Then these are
used to show the customers what the company and its products are
about.
You can say
Jesus had a “mission statement”.
“Go
into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.”
Mark
16:15
The word
“Go” means “I” or “Me”, the individual
Christian. It does not mean the other person or someone else.
Each and every Christian is commanded to go out into the world and
teach the gospel! You say that you cannot. God says that you can!
Do we not realize that our very lives are a testimony of our
relationship to God? When our “light shines” before the world
(Matt. 5:16); the world sees who and what we are. “Our “works”
should be of such that those who see us will “glorify God”.
Ask yourself
some questions: Was there any doubt about Christ‘s works; or
John’s, or Peter’s, or Paul’s? How many people look at you
and will go to worship or stay at home based on your “works”?
How many will study the Bible with you? How many will
participate in worship based on what you do? What I do
matters not only to others but to God.
But
someone may well say, “You have faith, and I have works; show me
you faith without the works; and I will show my faith by my works.”
(James 2:18)
What works are you doing for
Christ?
