The number of posts on Jesustrek recently passed the 400 mark. When I started writing this blog a little over a year ago, I never imagined that by now over a million people would have read it. Turned out I was right.
Seriously, I am happy to have the opportunity to write about the adventures, and the struggles, of trying to follow the teachings of Jesus every day. I hope to continue to influence as many people as I can to do their best for Jesus.
I am humbled to think about how many lives Paul the apostle was able to influence with the gospel message. Even without our modern technology, and sometimes hindered by prison bars and shackles, he was able to communicate the word of the Lord to a great number of people.
We all should do our best to spread God’s word, using any means available to us. We must take advantage of any and every opportunity to get the message out.
2 Thessalonians 3:1 says, “Finally, brothers, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you.”
During this current chapter, I have toiled with what I left behind at VCC and by not even being in my home, my neighborhood, to do “my thing” for God. Now I see, more clearly than ever before, that God can use us in other areas (that we would not have chosen). I resolve to try to share Christ and the gospel to those we encounter on this journey with Lance.
