Once you catch a glimpse of Jesus Christ, everything changes. Once you are baptized in a love that knows no boundaries, you too will carry love to the ends of the earth. Once you are faced with the King of Kings who wears a crown of thorns on His head, you will remove your crown to lay it at His feet. Once your eyes meet the beaten Savior’s as He carries His cross up a hill, you too will carry yours. I have been crucified with Christ to be raised to life with Him. I have been told to count the cost of following Him, but I have concluded that He is worth everything He paid for. His love compels me. I live to know Him and make Him known. He has commanded us to “Go and make disciples of all nations” (Matt. 28). His eyes roam throughout the earth looking for a heart that would belong completely to Him and He asks “Who shall I send, who will go?”. My response is an eternal yes. “Here I am Lord, send me!” Love always requires action. Just as He gave Himself for me, I will give my all to Him.
