When we become Christians there is that initial time of understanding our new found faith. But believe it or not we have immediately joined God’s work force and He has very important things for each of us to do. as we live our lives.

I clearly recall an incident when holidaying down the beach. As we walked along the waters edge one of our family group wrote in the sand with a stick. The message written, was ‘JESUS SAVES’. Now that might seem incidental, yet who knows, it may have been that one act that helped a person to find God.

When our Christian lives begin we all in a sense have that calling to go into all the world and preach the Gospel. In fact the first thing we want to do is actually tell others about our new experience. Everyone wants to share good news and it all starts with those words “have you heard ” When we find new life in Christ it is just the same, we want to tell the world the good news about Jesus Christ.

As we find a spiritual home in a local church of our choosing there will often be something we can do enabling us to be an active Christian serving the Lord. But the various froms of Christian service are numerous and diverse. The Holy Spirit is available to lead us to find if you like that niche of service that is right for us.

We are not all called to be a missionary or to be a church pastor. But we are all workers with God having an individual, essential, and important part to play.
