Who is God sending you to? What is God sending you out to do? If God sends us all out to do his work in the world, what might that look like in our lives?
God sent his only son into the world for the purpose of our salvation, redemption, and restoration. Jesus was sent to us on a mission from the Father.
God sent Jesus on mission in the world, and God sends us on mission in the world.
In John’s gospel account, Jesus said to his disciples, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you.” (John 20:21, ESV).
Jesus gives us his peace and sends us out to do the work he has given us to do.
May we receive the peace of Jesus and obey God’s sending as we do his work in the world.
A Prayer for Those Who Serve Others: “O Lord our heavenly Father, whose blessed Son came not to be served, but to serve: We ask you to bless all who, following in his steps, give themselves to the service of others especially those who are laboring in this time of plague; endue them with wisdom, patience, and courage, that they may strengthen the weak and raise up those who fall, and, being inspired by your love, may worthily minister to the suffering, the friendless, and the needy; for the sake of him who laid down his life for us, your Son our Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
