If the only place people can find Jesus is inside a church building, we’ve forgotten His mission completely.
Jesus didn’t wait for the lost to come to Him.
He went looking for them.
“The Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”
Luke 19:10
I had the honor of praying with this beautiful young woman as she surrendered her life to Jesus Christ.
Let that sink in.
While some debate whether the Church should go into places like this, heaven is celebrating because another name was written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.”
2 Peter 3:9
The heart of God has never been to avoid those who are far from Him, instead His heart has always been to rescue them.
Now the question is: Where is the light?
Because in Luke 10:2 Jesus said “the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.”
Where are the workers?
Jesus left the ninety-nine to pursue the one.
But yet, we’re content repeating the same lessons to the same congregation while the lost are still waiting for someone to tell them they’re loved, forgiven, and worth dying for.
As believers we have to decide whether we’ll love people enough to go where they’re hurting, carrying the hope of the Gospel instead of our comfort.
May we never become so comfortable inside church that we forget why Jesus came.
Because there are still sons and daughters waiting to be found.
