Through missions we share
the love and grace of God in Christ Jesus in some of the most real and tangible
ways, and in so doing, we ourselves also experience Christ in new and profound
ways. –
Chris Sauer
This is what it means to be a Christian, a
disciple.
- We love
those who probably can't give anything in return.
- We do
“unto others” as an expression of the love of God that is inside of us,
bubbling up, spilling over, and flowing out!
Christians on a mission are giving two gifts
-- one gift which satisfies a practical need, and one gift which opens a window
to the love and grace of God.
The
man replied, "The Scriptures say, 'Love the Lord your God with all your
heart, soul, strength, and mind.' They also say, 'Love your neighbors as much
as you love yourself.'" – Luke 10:27
