Romans 15:8,9
Reading this verse really made me think. "For I tell you that Christ has become a servant to the Jews on behalk of God's truth to confirm his promises mad to the patriarchs, so the Gentiles may glorify God for His mercy, as it is written: Therefore I will praise you among the Gentiles; I will sing hymns to your name."
I love this because Christ came to the Jews could glorify God for His promises and faithfulness to His covenant people AND he also come to the Gentiles and for the Gentiles to see His mercy.
here follows a couple of hymns on God's faithfulness to the Jews and Gods mercy to Gentiles
"Pass me Not O gentile Savior" and "My hope is built on nothing less"

mission work
Mission work
I have asked God to direct me in this question. Do we need to go to other countries like Africa to be changed and know God? No not at all. I think we as Christians need to work in the world to see hurting people and see God there. As Christians we seclude ourselves in our own world and then think we have it together and then say God has told me to go to Africa and then my heart has changed. Why? Because we have not had our nose in the world and to see hurt and loneliness and only in the and we don't even get to know our fellow believers and what I mean is really find out where each of our souls are at. When we become less formal and more soul to soul converstions we will see loneliness. It is in loneliness and when I ask questions of why did this happen then in those times I see God. I see earthly ways that leave God out of their lives and I then as I want to blame earthly reasons why kids or adults are hurt I want to blame parents but when I realize that blaming won't go anywhere it is in those times I humble myself and see that only God can heal through others helping us. I thank God for people in my life who have walked beside me and not told me what to do but asked me questions to guide my thinking into finding my own answers. So we need to put our foot out into the world to see God and realize that He has a plan for us. Let us not put ourselves in a box and step out into the world and trust God that He will guide us. Let us not put God in a box and think He won't guide us in our journey. Trust and obey for theres not other way to be happy i Jesus but to trust and obey.
