Last night and Looking Ahead

Last night we looked at 2 Corinthians 5:18-21 and considered the topic of "On Mission with Jesus." This topic is a really broad topic and cannot be totally covered in a 45 minute study, but we simply looked at our text and considered three points. 1) The Mission of Jesus 2) Our Mission with Jesus 3) Taking Jesus into "Our World."
I do believe that the Lord really blessed it and that many were encouraged, challenged, convicted, etc. One of the things that we did at the end of the message was to reflect on three questions. Here they are:

1)What priorities need to change in my life so that I can be realigned and "On Mission with Jesus?"

2) How can I become that ambassador that Jesus has called me to be?

3) How can I bring Jesus into "my world?"

We did this first individually during the time of worship and then broke into groups of two or three and spent time discussing these questions and prayed for one another.

I do pray that as we look ahead that each of us who were there tonight would not simply listen to this message, but that we would go forward and put it into practice.
