Servanthood is NEVER Convenient..

This is something that i wrote after cell group on friday... Part of it is a sharing by offered..

Paul was the person who was brought to his mind. Paul hunted Christians and put them to death. God convicted him as he was on his way to kill Jesus's disciples.Then he went out to preach the Gospel!

So what's my point? well, i'm getting to it NOW! :D

During that time, Christians were persecuted by both Jews and Gentiles. Christians were imprisoned, beaten,....It wasnt a CONVENIENT time for anyone, including Paul (esp Paul because of his family background and what he has done)
BUT, he chose to SERVE in the INCONVENIENT time; he chose to preach the Gospel to the ones who did not know God yet but needed God in their lives.

Yes, orientation 2010 is going to be during Chinese New Year, on top of being in Summer. Yes, it is going to be an INCONVENIENT time to serve.
But my question to you is are you going to be a SERVANT or are you going to choose to SERVE?

This is Jesus's instruction:
"Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them." ~John 13:17

And this is what He has called us to do:
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father, the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always to the end of the age."~Matthew 28:19-20

What are you going to do?:)
