Do something in the name of the Lord!

How many of you can say you have really made a difference in the world in Jesus's name? If you can, good for you! Keep it up! If not, I recommend that you start. The Lord has given us talents to spread Christ's love and make a difference in his name! If you're looking for something, talk to your youth director about doing World Vision's 30 Hour Famine. I did it for the first time this spring, and I cannot wait to participate again this year and years to come. Raising money to give food, water, shelter, and education for children who are living in third-world countries may seem hard, but in 2 weeks, I raised enough money to support a child for 7 months! Plus, we did missions around town-- giving out free lunch, telling people about Christ's love, and learning about poverty that attacks even in our small town.
Right now, World Vision needs help more than ever to help these countries, plus the famine in Somalia is awful, and their goal to no longer have hunger in the world is not impossible. Talk to people about sponsoring you in your church's famine (I really encourage you to do it!); you won't have trouble finding those who want to help you in Christ's name!
God has such an amazing plan for you, and doing things in Jesus's names will absolutely help you get on the right path! What have you done to spread Christ's love? If you have a story, email it to me at missionfaithblog@gmail.com. Like Mission: Faith on Facebook, and follow @Mission_Faith on Twitter. Also, follow @WorldVisionUSA and @30HF for information on 30 Hour Famine and their work in Somalia!
Have a blessed day! God send!
