But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samar′ia and to the end of the earth. Acts 1:8 RSV

Jesus' words "To the end of the earth" are also interpreted as "to the uttermost part." We are to be witnesses in every corner of the world.


Historically, world missions involved people who braved things like oceans, foreign lands and jungles to spread the good news of Jesus Christ. These people are the "goers." Now, the uttermost parts also are reachable via the airwaves and digital technology. I'll call the people using these methods the "gabbers." And then there are the individuals who make it possible for both the goers and the gabbers to do their work. They are the "givers."


Go, gab, give.


Prayer

God, who inhabits the uttermost parts of the earth, let us be bold witnesses in every way You lead us.


Quote

Faith is one foot on the ground, one foot in the air, and a queasy feeling in the stomach.

//Mother Angelica (1923 2016)


Thought

I wonder if the shepherd boy David had a queasy feeling in his stomach when he went out to meet the giant Goliath.

  1. Thank you, Txbelle! I have considered adding a Monday photo devotion and thus posting twice weekly, but with time commitment required, it would need to be a monthly subscription option -- probably around the cost of a latte. If you or anyone reading this has interest in that, please 'like' this post and/or email me at lisa@lisalivezey.com. Thanks again.
