“If we love God’s fame and are committed to magnifying His name above all things, we cannot be indifferent to world mission.” John Piper

 

I’m just a simple 18 year old who has nothing to offer the world. I can’t change the world. I can’t serve people. I can’t even keep my own life from falling apart. But I do have Jesus Christ living His life through me. And THAT makes all the difference. 

I’m tired of a purposeless, dwarfed version of Christianity and am ready to allow the Spirit of God to do whatever He wants with my insignificant life. I am taking 9 months after I graduate from high school to chase Jesus. I want to know Him more and what better way to do that than to deny myself, go out into the world, and do what He did. I have yielded my body and soul to the invincible, all-powerful, faithful, loving God who has promised to bring His Kingdom to earth. And I want my life to operate within that Kingdom.

I have joined an invading regime and am allowing God to make me into a warrior that fearlessly charges the gates of hell. I want Jesus Christ to live His life through me. The death He died has qualified me to live the life He lived. Christ has already defeated every enemy. Let us walk in His power and Spirit and establish His Kingdom now.

The Lamb is worthy to receive the reward of His suffering. Let us go. Crucified to the flesh. Alive in the Spirit. Watch out world. The Kingdom of God is at hand.

“If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain.” Emily Dickinson
