Opening Doors for the Gospel

I was reading a recent update from our Samaritan's Purse missionary partners, and on the very first page I read this line: "ministry to earthquake survivors in Haiti is opening doors for the Gospel". 


That got me to thinking and reminded me of why it is that we help others with physical needs. Why do we provide shelter and food and assistance for those who have physical needs? It is because it's an opportunity for us to share the Gospel. 


That's why we do everything we do at Friendship Bible Church.  It's way too easy for us to lose that focus, and our adversary the devil is way too quick to help us in losing it!  So let's let our brothers and sisters at Samaritan's Purse refocus our minds today, and let's determine to make every minute count in reaching our world for Jesus.  May all our activity be used to open doors for the gospel.

After all, Romans 1:16 says "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for IT IS THE POWER OF GOD TO SALVATION FOR EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES...."
