Look around....

In John 4:35, Jesus says to look around the harvest is ripe. That is the motto per se, of our sign choir. Our goal is not to go into all corners of the earth to tell the world about Jesus. Our goal is to share His love in our community. You don't have to go far to find unsaved people who are hurting and need Jesus.

I know I am not perfect. I know God tells me every day things He wants me to work on. I am the last one to throw a stone at anyone else. I know I come across confident and put together....and I am, but I know the things God wants to perfect in me. (Why am I confessing this?) Because God uses imperfect people to reach the lost. Perfect people cannot relate to others simply because most people who need God are far from perfect. So, the more messed up you are, the more God can use you. (ha,ha, but yes) Out of the the darkest night, comes the brightest light. If you look through the Bible, God used some of the biggest sinners to do some of His best work: David, Moses, Paul. (look up their history....it will give you hope and take away all your excuses)
Think of all the mistakes you have made in your life, what you have learned from them, and try to think how God can use that to help others.

So, now, look around at those in your local area....the harvest is ripe. Think about that.....
