weekend with bball & reaffirmation

It was a great weekend of rest, bball, and good weather. Thank you so much CBS sportsline for broadcasting the NCAA tournament games over the internet!! Here in BA, it's early Fall type weather, where it's slightly cool and sunny during the day, and then gets cooler at night.

At church on Saturday night, I heard a message that was quite reaffirming. They talked about missions, our call to do so as followers of Christ, and what that means. Essentially, it is doing, taking action. We can talk the talk, but there's a time, which is NOW, that we need to walk the walk. That doesn't necessarily mean travelling to Argentina. There are missions right at home in San Antonio, next door with your neighbors in Spokane, with your office co-workers in Dallas or South Carolina, and millions ba-jillions of other people around the world who NEED to hear (and not necessarily with words) the message of Jesus.

Doing missions may not be, and in fact probably not, easy, nor comfortable, nor familiar, but it is Christ-like. We are called to get off our keisters and do, to trust in faith and go. In doing so, we will receive the utmost comfort.
