The Story

The blessings of Jesus Christ are not only for salvation, but also to make us instruments of His blessings. God helps His people to be saved and uses them to spread the good news to others. The great commission that Jesus gave to the disciples is the commission given to the church as a whole. The work of proclaiming the gospel and making disciples is not the task of just a few people, but God calls every believer to manifest the power of Christ in the place where He has placed him. We often separate our lives from our service, but those whom Christ has redeemed with His blood no longer own their own lives. Our time, relationships, words, service, and daily lives all belong to the Lord. This is not a heavy burden first, but a great honor. God uses weak people like us as instruments in the work of redemption. Grace not only saves us, but also calls us to participate in God's earthly work. Our Father, help us. We praise you, because in Jesus Christ, you not only saved us, but also called us to be part of the work of redemption. Forgive us when we live as if we are our own, and think that the work of the gospel is the task of some people only. Thank you, Jesus Christ, who bought me with His blood. Please let the Holy Spirit change my heart to remember that my whole life belongs to You. May my words, service, and relationships declare the goodness of Christ. Pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
