Just a Thought

Hey!!!! It's pretty late where I am right now, but I just really have a thought I'd like to share with you. Have you ever traveled to another country? Have you ever traveled to a poor country? Well, I've visited Vietnam before when I was young, but I've heard so many stories about the country since. My distant cousins are DELIGHTED to get a box of brand new color pencils from us. They're happy over a little thing like that. A lady I know went to Africa a few years back. There, she passed out pencils and erasers and things like that since school's about to start for them. One of the boys that she gave a pencil too immediately broke it in half. Do you know why? It's because that his mother told him that that way he would have two pencils instead of one. Christians, especially Christians at are in wealthy countries with relatively easy lives, listen. We've got to have a burden for these people. The lack of food brings about a weak immune system which means easy death. No gospel brings a weak wall against temptation and Satan which means eternity in hell. Someone's dying each day. That person might possibly go to hell. We can't possibly save everyone, but we can certainly try our hardest to reach as many people as possible. DON'T WAIT!!!!! You don't know if your neighbor or family member will be living for much longer. You don't know if God's going to rapture all the Christians sooner or later. That's why we must "redeem the time [that's been given to us]."
