Night-and-Day Difference

"But you are the ones chosen by God, chosen for the high calling of priestly work, chosen to be a holy people, God's instruments to do his work and speak out for him, to tell others of the night-and-day difference he made for you—from nothing to something, from rejected to accepted." -1 Peter 2:9-10 (MSG)

This is what Honduras is all about! We are going to tell hundreds of children and their families about Our God, the God that has made a complete 180 degree turnabout in my life. The God that has relentlessly taken me back time and time again. The God that sees past all my imperfections. The God that never gives up on me. The God that knows my flaws, and uses them to bring Him glory. The God that will never let me down. The God that has made a "night-and-day difference" for me. The God that has brought me "from nothing to something" and "from rejected to accepted".

That is what we are going to be doing that week. Loving on kids, and bragging about our God. It's something we should be doing everyday, in every situation. There is no opportunity too small for Our God to use. It doesn't take a huge mission trip out of the country in order to bring our God glory and honor. All it takes is a willing servant who will let the Lord in and a few seconds, and God can do miraculous things. He can, will, and does make "night and day" differences each and every day. He turns all of us who deserves to be nothing, who deserve worse than rejection, into people that are "somethings" and who are accepted. That's not the world, that's God.
