Romans 10:13-15
For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
But how are they to call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?
And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”
I pray that God would give me a heart that longs to see people call on his name and be saved. I am so prone to go about my days thinking mostly of myself, consumed with the small bubble of my own life. I forget the big picture very easily. This is not my home. There is a reason that I am here and it has a great, eternal value. I am here to be salt and light on this earth. I am here to sow seeds. Seeds of kindness, a smile, selflessness, an encouraging word, an effort to get to know someone, a listening ear, an offer to help.
And during the times that I am not sowing seeds of the Gospel myself, I have the privilege of being a faithful sender of others “who preach the good news” all around the world. I can pray God’s Word for them, help send packages to them, pray for their requests, encourage them with an e-mail or letter.
I want to be a part of the enhancement of God’s kingdom, spreading the good news of the Gospel. I want to have beautiful feet…not by the world’s standards, but by God’s.
