A Rescued Nation
2 Corinthians 5:20 (Amplified Bible)
20 So we are Christ's ambassadors, God making His appeal as it were through us. We [as Christ's personal representatives] beg you for His sake to lay hold of the divine favor [now offered you] and be reconciled to God.
I was watching Megamind tonight with my brother when I realized something. God wants us to take a hold of our world and rescue it. He has created us to be the heroes. It may be something as small as helping a old lady carry her groceries to her car. It may be something as big as giving away 100,000 dollars to random deserving citizens who help people (unseen heroes). People need to realize we are all in this world together... we have all been given unique gifts to help one another. Even if you feel like you haven't discovered your super hero ability yet ... it is there. Perhaps we are like Megamind and are uncertain of our destiny... we attempt to find gratification in evil things and in the end feel empty and alone. However, we can turn from that and reacquaint ourselves with the significance of self sacrifice and giving from our hearts no matter what we give small or large monetary or serviceable. This world is ours we are going to conquer it we are bound to it and we are going to need everything we are to take care of it and make sure it is safe.
So when you wake up tomorrow and you look to the world around you full of darkness and oppression... start believing that it's time for change. Do your part! Get out there and get going. It doesn't matter how little you have to give because even when you only have a little God can use it in a BIG way.
Be a hero today and rescue this nation!
Matthew 25:40
"And the King will say, 'I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!'
