Yet when I preach the gospel, I cannot boast, for I am compelled to preach. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!
WOW! How I fall short of this! For me to actually preach the Gospel, is somewhere in the same catagory of having billions of dollars and not giving a dime to world hunger. When do we preach this Gospel? When do we, and when do I have the courage to actually put this into action? To not preach the gospel to me is like having the cure to cancer and not telling anyone, to hold it deep inside and to only heal myself with it. Not preaching the gospel seems to me like one of the most selfish things a person can do. As the verse states, preaching is something that I am compelled to do. Recently, I have been challenged in my faith to actually go and preach. Not to preach lousy messages to Christians that do not care to change or to fulfill the call of the Bible, but to preach to the BILLIONS of people on this earth that have YET TO HEAR THE WORD OF GOD. I hope this changes, I hope that I can fulfill this calling, I hope that others may be challenged the same as I, I hope that eyes and hearts of people that have not heard to Gospel are opened and prepared for me, and I hope that God gives me the courage for these things. Pray for me, and pray for yourselves. The world needs to know, I do not know how we can hold to truth to ourselves any longer. Let this Gospel burn within us, until we tell all that we see! Let's GO!
