Ambassadors for Christ


      “Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God. For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” (2 Corinthians 5:20-21)
     Come, let us shout it out! I am not ashamed! For the Lord is my saving grace, and I take refuge in Him. There is certainly no amount of darkness that can dim the glorious light of the Lord. He is the Almighty creator of the universe; He defeated the grave! What joy I feel when I'm reminded of just how powerful and strong my Lord and Savior is, and how much He loves me. He cares for me with His gentle touch. I hear His heartbeat and experience peace, even when the storm around me is raging with fury. Embrace the warmth of His Presence. Seek Him. Speak to Him; He's always listening. His love is freely given!
     Once you have come to know His abundant love and mercy, you will be able to share it. Spread the word. In Matthew 10:8, Jesus said, “Freely you have received, freely give.”. He who has received the gift of God's grace can share it with the world. The power of the living God is great, so go and tell the world!
     “That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord, are the Most High over all the earth.” (Psalm 83:18).
     
     May the Lord bless you and keep you,
     The Introverted Evangelist.

Faith That He is Near Always

   One, of many things, for which I am very  grateful, is that the Lord is always near me. He is never far away. I can call on Him through prayer, and He will always listen. He genuinely cares for what I am worried about. No prayer is too small or unimportant, because we are God's children and He loves us all.    Call upon the Lord in times of need, and in times of joyfulness. He wants to commune with us. He desires our yearning for His presence. When we're longing for that "something more" He is the One that can satisfy. He is gentle and loving. He wants to be with you more than you can even imagine.    "The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth." ( Psalm 145:18 ) It pleases Him when we reach out to Him in desperation. Because He is The Creator of all things that exist, when He is our passionate desire, When He is the One thing we need , that's when we are complete. That is when we have peace, joy, and abundant lif...

I Loved You at Your Darkest

I Loved You at Your Darkest: "While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!” When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified. But Jesus came and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don't be afraid.” When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus." (Matthew 17:5-8) In the first few verses of Matthew chapter seventeen, Jesus led Peter, James, and John up to a mountain top. It was just the four of them, or so the disciples thought. Whilst they were walking Jesus was "transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light." (Matthew 17:2) Today, this passage is really speaking to me. I feel like the Lord is using this passage as a reminder that sometimes we must fall "facedown on the ground" in complete awe of His glory and surrender to His mysterious yet miraculous ways. A...
