Scripture Touching Me These Days
Mark 10:21
Jesus looked at him and loved him, “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give it to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
Acts 13:47
For this is what the Lord has commanded us: “I have made you a light for the Gentiles that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.”
Acts 5 : 12-16
The apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders among the people. And all the believers used to meet together in Solomon’s Colonnade. No one else dared join them, even though they were highly regarded by the people. Nevertheless, more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their number. As a result people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that at least Peter’s shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by. Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by evil spirits, and all of them were healed.
Acts 5 : 38b-39
For if their purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail. But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only find yourselves fighting aginst God.
Acts 5 : 41-42
The apostles left the Sanhedrin, rejoicing because they had been counted worthy of suffering disgrace for the Name. Day after day, in the temple courts and from house to house, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus is the Christ.
Notice a pattern? I do.
Everything that has hit me, convicted me, sparked something in me lately while reading scripture has been related to full submission and commitment to the lifelong pursuit of serving God wherever He calls me to go. Whether it’s in my own backyard or halfway across the world, He is definitely getting me ready for something. My credit card debt is paid off this summer and car within 18 months. If He were to call me to leave within a week and go across the world to serve, I’d be able to since I would own my car then and have no debt 
And the more these passages pop out at me, the more appealing this lifestyle becomes and the harder I try to pursue it each day.
