For some people it is dificult to know what motivates a person to be a missionary. Why would a person leave family, country, financial stability and comfort to go to a strange land. Paul the apostle figured it out when he said that the love of Christ constrains us or motivates us. It a compassion from the heart to see God change lives and bless people that drives us. Got a call from a lady who listens to our radio program. We stopped in to see her and found a confused and hurting lady beaten up by religion. Once the light of God´s Word is sown and love is imparted the cloud of confusion is lifted and life comes. It´s the joy of seeing a drunk set free, a drug addict delivered or a rich snooty, high society person finially find peace to the tormented heart. This is what makes the so called sacrifice worth it all. Its looking outside of oneself and seeing that what matters in life are the lives that are touched by ours. To see Jesus change a life makes it worth it all!
