It's Worth It To Give!

I believe in missions!! It is the heartbeat of God! I was moved to tears with the tales of those who, in proclaiming the gospel, give up their very lives to stand for the cause of Christ! We have been in the middle of a Missions Convention. Today was the last service. It was simply awesome! The speaker told of the very first AG missionary to be raised up in Pakistan. Can you imagine, a missionary in Pakistan!! He was willing to put his life on the line to preach Jesus! Well, just this past month he was assassinated for his faith! Out of 1000 people who were at his funeral, 100 men and women came forward to say that they woud take his place! Amazing! Satan thought he could shut the message of this one missionary up but his plan backfired and instead there are now 100 voices to replace this one voice that was silenced!!

This years convention really inspired me to want to do more for missions! Out of every dollar we give, there are, on average, 3 people who will hears the gospel mesage!! It is worth every dollar!

Will we go to hell if we don't give to missions? No, but others will!
