There is so much work to be done. When we look around our world, there is an immense amount of suffering and pain. Sin and evil are rampant, even in our churches. Injustice is everywhere. People are hurting and lonely, spiritually dead and needy. The picture is profoundly bleak and depressing. For such an impossible circumstance such as this, it’s really a wonder how God expects us to do anything about it. But indeed, He doesn’t. He doesn’t expect us to fix anything, because He knows more than anyone else how deeply incompetent we are. That’s why He sent a Savior – the only Savior for the whole world. Our part is only that of a faithful messenger, just simply obeying His Spirit’s movement within us each day, remembering that true salvation for this life and the next belongs only to God. And when we obey, His light will shine through us and become for a darkened world a bright ray of hope, as Jesus once became the light and hope to each one of us. May God use us during this mission to Gambia and bring many to the joyous knowledge of Jesus Christ! :)
