(Sundaycast) Sowing New Seeds Into The World (Isaiah 42:9; Matt 13:37 38) (Hope)

Jesus is the fulfillment of the promise in Isaiah. Jesus is the NEW THING that God is doing in the world. You and I are chosen by Jesus to follow Him to the ends of the earth. But now the ends of the earth are coming into our country, our state, our town and these are now our neighbors. What does it mean for us to pray for these people? How do we reach out to them with the love of Jesus so that they may be able to hear the good news of His death and resurrection for us? We don’t have to go as much as we once did. God the Father is sending the world to us. But we are still chosen to sow the seeds of life into these people God has sent to us. The photo today of some Mount Carmel staff and friends was redecorated by our grandchildren just to display what it may mean for us to be a new thing to the world where we live for Jesus. Maybe each of us should recreate one of our photos to help us see ourselves as a new thing which God wants to use to bless others.
