Missionaries — Part 1
“Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel” (Mark 16:15).
This is a word to every one of us who belong to the Lord, but, as we said yesterday, not necessarily telling every one of us that we need to head out to the foreign mission field or some remote corner of the planet. But we can all be missionaries. When I was a boy in Sunday school, we used to sing that familiar children’s song:
Jesus bids us shine
With a pure, clear light,
Like a little candle
Burning in the night;
In this world of darkness,
So we must shine,
You in your small corner,
And I in mine.
Let’s preach by our actions and by our words, in whatever corner of the world the Lord has put us in today. And if He chooses to send us to another corner of the world tomorrow, let’s be ready to go where He leads, as His messenger, like the prophet who said, “Here am I; send me” (Isaiah 6:8).
