We are Christ's ambassadors, and
God is using us to speak to you.
We urge you, as though Christ himself
were here pleading with you,
"Be reconciled to God!"
In today's world of diplomacy and state departments, there are ambassadors from every nation deployed to different countries all over the world. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was once quoted as saying, “I have come to know that the finest of Americans we have abroad today are the missionaries of the Cross. I am humiliated that I am not finding out until this late day the worth of foreign missions and the nobility of the missionaries. Their testimony in China, for instance, during the war there, is beyond praise. Their courage is thrilling and their fortitude heroic.” As ambassadors of the cross, our job is to spread the love of Christ. The love of Christ can break down language and cultural barriers, as well as political and military differences. When a Christian missionary is sent into a difficult situation, we can say for certain that spreading love and ending strife will be key priorities. What are your day to day priorites as an ambassador of the cross?
