Last braai before winter

Last night (Tuesday), the members of our home fellowship group decided to have one last quick braai before the winter cold sets in.  I know that South African’s are softies compared to other countries, but our homes etc. are just not built to be as weather resistant as they should be.  Most people I know will admit that once winter sets in it is really hard to get them to leave their cozy homes to go out anywhere, especially at night.  It's all about being in our comfort zone. 

The truth is the same could be said about our faith.  What most people want is just to be on their own mission, about their own lives and have little time for others or the worries or cares they have.

Jesus however challenged this paradigm and demonstrated to us on the cross that it is only through sacrifice and giving of ourselves that we are able to make kind of impact on mankind.  

I know that it is hard and uncomfortable but I am going to challenge you to look at your own life and ask yourself, "what can I do?"  God's kingdom needs hands and feet, real people at work, in order to bring the gospel of salvation to all mankind.
