It has always been my ambition to preach the gospel where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else's foundation.
Romans 15:20 NIV
What is your ambition in life? To retire early? To acquire great wealth? To get more degrees than the others in your class? To be a straight-A student? To live in a really big house? To sail the seven seas? To climb the highest mountain? To discover the latest cure?
Those may all be meaningful ambitions, and I'm sure yours is as well, but do you really want to make a difference in the world? Then tell someone about Jesus!
A friend of mine said he walked into a fast food restaurant the other day and handed one of the workers a gospel track. The boy had never heard of the gospel. Oh, he had heard of Jesus, but he hadn't a clue what difference Jesus could make in his life today. No one had ever told him that to enter Heaven one must be born again. The boy, that day, prayed to receive Christ. He will never be the same! I can't wait to meet him in Heaven! He'll be the one with the big smile on his face.
You and I have been assigned a mission in life. We are to win a lost world to Jesus. Can you imagine, right around you today, perhaps where you work or even in your own home, someone you know is lost and going to Hell. God may be depending on you to lead them to Christ!
Make it your ambition today to tell someone about the love of Jesus! Their lives will never be the same and neither will yours!
