I laughed and cried on New Years Eve
missionarybobsmith@hotmail.com
I always laugh when I go to a flea market. I laugh with expectation when we drive up and see thousands of cars and great crowds of people like a white harvest field. I laugh with joy when people ask questions as we witness and end up believing on Jesus as their savior. Last Saturday, New Years Eve, as I neared our booth, I laughed out loud to see our workers giving out scriptures as fast as they could.
When they told me they had to catch their ride to Matamoros at 2 O’ clock, I sat down to rest my “new”knee. When they left and I was alone, I stood up and gave out several hundred scriptures until my leg pain made me sit down. I continued to give out a few to those on the edge of the crowds, but for two hours hundreds of people passed by without receiving scriptures.
To say the least, I was frustrated and ready to cry. I felt like a soldier without a weapon and a fireman without any water! Then I felt sorrow for God’s people and Churches. So many Christians say, ‘sinners will not take a tract nor listen to the gospel message anymore!’ I wanted to shout out,’ Then go to somewhere in your area where they will hear! There is such a place, because Jesus ordered us to GO, and SOW, not stay and play! The farmer must leave the house and take the seed out of the barn if he wants a crop!’ Dear Christian , no farmer ever had more precious SEED or a greater field than we have today! Politicians are filling the air with promises they cannot fulfill. Let’s fill sinners ears with God’s promises that cannot fail!
------YOU AND YOUR CHURCH CAN REACH THE BORDER SOWING FIELDS FROM WHERE YOU ARE-------------God supplies the thousands of Scriptures and tracts we distribute freely on both sides of the border---- BUT HE USES HIS PEOPLE TO DO IT! --YOU can contact printers and haulers who supply us Gospel Seed!!
ASK THEM “ How can we help you get Scriptures to Bob Smith and those sowing on the Border?
