Hot Stuff!!!!

I have been growing more and more concerned as I hear of the devestation the Bushfires around Australia have caused. People are losing everything they have, everything they've worked for and every materialistic things they love. People are struggling with the hot and smoky days that we have been experiencing. Infact, at the School where I work there were 6 0r 7 kids that had fairly serious asthma attacks yesterday, believed to have been triggered by the smoke. Nature around us is suffering due to the exessive heat and the lack of water. The devestation is widespread.

While I am devestated about their materialistic loss, My main concern is the fact that if we as Christian's do not go out and tell them about God's love, grace and Salvation - THEN they will be living this devestation for all of ETERNITY!! Infact I doubt the bushfires even come close to the devestation of hell. I refuse to be responsible for not getting out there and sharing the Good News! For if God requires me to go and preach the Word to all (and He requires us ALL to do that) Then that's what I'll do!! I won't be smothered, distracted, mothered or tired, I'm a Soldier of the God, Most High! May we continue to grow and live passionately for the glory of God and the Salvation of the world.

Please join me upholding our wonderful country, Australia in prayer as the fires continue to burn. Not for our glory, but the Glory of the Risen King - Jesus!!
