For years I have prayed asking God to raise someone up like Billy Graham to preach salvation to the masses. It is very sorely needed! We need the next Billy Graham to deliver the Gospel to the lost! Besides all the missionaries currently working tirelessly to do it.
I admit that I have always thought too much and spoken too little. I am a woman of few words, always have been. Growing up I was the quiet kid who never got into trouble or did anything bad.
This evening I was watching a lot of extreme sports videos on my computer and I got to thinking really deeply about a few things:
All that we do in this life, all the medals we might win, all the feats we might accomplish, and all the talents we may exercise...it is all for nothing if we are not born-again and found in Christ, because one day He is going to judge all of us for the things we did in this life. And only the things we have done for Him will stand in the end. Not any worldly things we have done for ourselves, but what we have ultimately done for Him. That is what counts.
Someone once told me that born-again people and people who are not born again behave and think differently and have different desires. Those of us who are born again love Jesus and care about serving Him, while the unsaved seem to not care about these things at all.
