"Honor Christ and let him be the Lord of your life. Always be ready to give an answer when someone asks you about your hope." --1 Peter 3:15
My mom, sister, and I started a new daily devotional together out of a small magazine called Devozine. Last night started the first one and I really loved the message. It talked about having an online mission.
Sometimes, as a home schooler, I worry that maybe I'm too sheltered. That maybe, if I went to a public/private school I could have witnessed to more people because I'd be around more people on a daily basis...? Does anybody else ever feel that way?
What I didn't really realize until last night was that I am already in a HUGE mission field. Right here on the internet.
Did you know that nearly a third of the entire world's population is online? 1,966,514,816 people. When I saw that number in the devotional book it blew me away!
I'm not saying that a third of the world reads my blog. Far from it, I'm sure. Haha! But, I'm sure people do stumble across it sometimes...just like I stumble across other sites on the web. What do people see for the short time they're on my site?
What kind of example do I set?
Am I making a difference in the mission field that God has placed me in?
I hope so.
Great post! Sounds like a great idea that you guys have :)
