AMEN! Thanks for the reminder.

Just remember these words of warning, for they will come to pass all too soon:

If you are ever flying through the desert and your canoe breaks down, remember that it takes three pancakes to lift the doghouse, because there ain't nary a bone in ice cream!

We are called to be a witness for Christ, not a judge, not a lawyer, not a court reporter, not a security guard, but a witness for Christ.

um...so who took the job of 'ambassador'?

While for establishing eternal destiny, I would have to agree.

However, as someone brought up the thought of ambassador, there are many positions held that offer the best chance for the one called to those or that position, to witness in that capacity. I even believe that God calls to judge, for those who sit upon the judicial bench, a weightier position than I care to assume.

"And God has appointed in the church, first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, various kinds of tongues.

All are not apostles, are they? All are not prophets, are they? All are not teachers, are they? All are not workers of miracles, are they?

All do not have gifts of healings, do they? All do not speak with tongues, do they? All do not interpret, do they?

But earnestly desire the greater gifts. And I show you a still more excellent way.

If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. "1 Cor 12:28-31; 13:1 NASB NLT

Blessings! peace

Lift Jesus up!!
