the GREAT commission
Matthew 28:18-20Then Jesus came to them and said,"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
Yea folks, today's scripture tells us to GO. GO and make disciples. GO and baptize the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. GO and teach them to obey God's commandments. Go, GO, GOOOOO. That's the Great Commission. To GO and tell the world the good news. We're not excluded from this commission. We are to tell the world that Jesus lives. While we most probably can't stop schooling to go to 'all nations', we can, and we should be telling our family and schoolmates that Jesus lives. There are so many people around us that need to know that God loves them. Let's be part of the story that God is weaving - GO. TELL. WHISPER IT, SAY IT, YELL IT OUT. And remember that Jesus will always be with you, so there's really nothing to be afraid of.
