Is this my job....??

I worked for eleven days and now I'm vacationing on the beach!  Yes this is my job for the moment.   I having been basking in relaxation and sun when God reminded me something this morning.  "Whitney, you're still a child of mine....why aren't you doing your job?" "but God I'm on vacation from my job, plus I don't speak the language..."  Then God replies, "so just because you are on vacation means you put off what I have called you too do?"  

Don't you just love those conversations and at that moment your heart sinks because you realize how blinded you've been.  Just because I'm not in a church service, or on a M trip, or in my town of residence doesn't mean I'm supposed to stop praying, sharing, and living a life of Christ's light to the people around me!  I can't speak the language but that shouldn't be an excuse.  I'm too busy or it's awkward shouldn't be one either.  

As I was riding on a bike yesterday up and down the beach I passed fishing boats and shacks, little hut restaurants, local people and their homes, as well as foreigners soaking up the sun.  So I guess because I'm on vacation they don't need to hear about Jesus?  Hmmmm..... 

God may I never ever stop sharing the greatest story of all just because....no matter where I am. Break my heart and soul for the people around me each and every day that are dying without Jesus.        Amen
