“I want to be remembered as someone who used herself and anything she could touch to work for justice and freedom…I want to be remembered as one who tried.”
Dorothy Height (American Civil Rights and Women’s Rights Activist, Educator) 1912-2010
(John 12:32) “And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself.
God desires that His Kingdom be filled with His children of faith. This is His will in the earth as it is in Heaven. It is not God’s will for man to build earthly kingdoms and advertise them as being evidence of God’s will. No! Believers in Jesus Christ make up the Kingdom of God, and in being His children – we are assigned to go out into the world and draw more and more of our brothers and sisters in creation to their inherit place. How do we do that? It’s simple. We make ourselves available for service unto the Lord. Draw close to Him. Learn of Him. Trust and believe in Him. In obedience, sense where He is leading you to go. Do what He is guiding you to do. Know that whatever you need in order to lead someone to Him, He will provide it. Most importantly: Remember that you are the available vessel, and it is Jesus Christ Himself Who works through you to win the hearts of His people to the Kingdom…and He will.
