Jesus said to them, 'Go out to the whole world; proclaim the Good News to all creation'. (Mark 16)
I feel like praying that my life might become simple enough for me to be able to say 'yes' when Jesus looks at me with love and invites me to leave everything behind and follow him.

LORD, help your servants to proclaim your message with all boldness
And now Lord... help your servants to proclaim your message with all boldness. (Acts 4)
We seldom fully realize that we have to choose how, where and with whom to live. We act as if we were simply dropped down in creation and have to decide how to entertain ourselves until we die. But we were sent into the world by God, just as Jesus was. Once we start living our lives with that conviction, we will soon know what we were sent to do.
