Mutating Missionary

God does not send us into the dangerous and exacting life of faith because we are qualified; He chooses in order to qualify us for what he wants us to be or do." Eugene Peterson

And God whispered in my ear...


Picture

His still small voice said:
"Come and sit with me."

Turning over in bed, hitting the floor running, a cursory reading and daily devotional, a quick trip to take care of banking, a jump into the car, flying away headed to school, a hurried school day, I finally stopped long enough to realize I had ignored the whisper.

I felt so sorry. I asked Him to forgive me and made a date for 5:00 in the morning the following morning -I had a group of women coming for Bible study in my home in the evening after school.

I kept to my promise and woke with a deep desire to spend time "sitting with my Lord"

And we talked. How? I read His love letters to me, I journaled, I prayed, a stopped... really stopped. He pointed me in directions I needed to think about.

I was thirsty -
I drank -
I was satisfied -
I was blessed.

Salt?
We are called to be the salt of this earth. And as we have all been told: Salt causes us to be thirsty. May I be continually thirsty for HIM!

Your mutating missionary

    A little about me

    I am in the world almost every day. Okay, daily.
    Are you?

    I am called to be salt and light.

    A few days ago, one of the waiters at the local diner that I frequent in the wee hours of the morning shared some very personal information. I looked as she opened up her heart with her pitcher of coffee poised in her hand, ready to pour - but not pouring. She held it as if it were a shield. The longer she shared her heart the lower the coffee pot dropped. And finally when she asked me my thoughts, the coffee pot sat beside me on the table. We talked. We laughed. We shared our lives and our thoughts. It was a time to shine a little light and sprinkle a little salt.

    Are you finding places that you meet people searching for the same things?

    I have been a commissioned missionary. I left the foreign mission field in November of 2014. Now I am a home missionary. Not commissioned by an organization. Commissioned by Jesus.

    Life is a mission field. I was a missionary in my classroom as a teacher before I left for the foriegn mission field. Before that I was a missionary with my family, neighbors and even in my church. I was a missionary from the moment I accepted Christ as my Savior at age 7.

    So are you.

    We are mutating missionaries.
    I'm blogging about the experience. Wanna join me?
