1844) When I was growing up, I always liked it when missionaries came to our church and spoke about their work. It was especially good when they brought slides to share and I could see visually what these men and women of God were doing for the Lord.
I admire these people. Completely uprooting their families and going somewhere to serve the Lord, yet have you ever considered that we are all supposed to be missionaries?
In 1 Corinthians 15:58, Paul tells us nothing we do for the Lord is in vain or worthless. Anytime we encourage others, help where needed, hold our tongues, give generously and so much more, we are being missionaries and God will use these things for his purposes, even if we don’t see what that is.
Anytime we’re doing what God has laid out for us to do in his word, we are meaningfully serving him.
