WHO, ME?


WHO, ME?

The Lord said "GO AND WITNESS AGAINST KILLING MY UNBORN BABIES!"

And I said, "Who me?"

And He said, "YES YOU."

And I said "You mean in public? (Right on Main Street?) I can't leave the kids, and you know how hard it is to find a sitter. Besides there's company coming.

And He said, "YOU'RE STALLING".

And the Lord said "GO AND WITNESS AGAINST ABORTION." and I said "I don't want to."

And He said "I DIDN'T ASK IF YOU WANTED TO."

And I said "Listen that's not my style, I'm not the kind of person who gets involved in controversy. Besides my family won't like it, or my friends, or my boss. And what will the neighbors think?

And He said ' BALONEY GO"

And yet a third time the Lord said "GO AND SAVE THE BABIES"

And I said "Look I'm scared." People will hate me. And make fun of me. And cut me up into little pieces. And maybe I won't know what to say.

And He said "WHERE DO YOU THINK I'LL BE?"

And the Lord said 'GO'.

And I sighed, "Here I am, send me."

NOTE: This is an all too real inspirational prose of a reality many of us have lived through in various degress over the years, sometimes on a daily basis. We hope it blesses and encourages you. God has some interesting conversations with us as this one portrays. It could apply to so many areas in our lives but abortion is the most desperately needed mission field yet the one as Christians find hardest

Oh how we long for the day when it is no longer needed as we grow in Christ. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. Still, with the Apostle Paul we say,

"But the Lord said to me, My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you (sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully); for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in your weakness. Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me! So for the sake of Christ, I am well pleased and take pleasure in infirmities, insults, hardships, persecutions, perplexities and distresses; for when I am weak in human strength), then am I truly strong (able, powerfulin divine strength)." 2 Corinthians 12:9-10
