God is all about people! Mankind was introduced as the pinnacle of creation and into him alone was breathed the breath of God. No other creature is described as being in the image of God. Jesus Christ came to earth to seek and to save lost people, not money, politics, or even the environment; PEOPLE!
Jesus then commissioned the Church
to carry on His mission to reach the world with the Gospel “Good News” that God
still loves humanity and desires to restore a beautiful perfect relationship
with every person.
With such a massive mission that was begun by the perfect
missionary (Jesus) it is easy to think, “I could never measure up to the
enormity of the task or the talent required.” However, that is not what God is
looking for.
I believe missions has never been
about strength, talent or intelligence; mission work is all about an ability to
understand God’s will and the faith to walk with Him wherever He leads. This
requires living daily near the heart of God.
We are so
blessed that people just like this will be with us during this year’s Missions
Conference. Missionaries
Robert and Jody Hayton have been
serving in
the Zambezi River Valley of Sub-Saharan Africa for many years. I encourage all to come and share
in the heart of this
couple who live near to the heart of God.
