What is your burden?

As the world events unfold around us, many may ask the question "why should I care"? It is a fair question. Afterall how can what is happening in Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, or Gaza effect me living here?
However we have been left us in this world to influence it. Left here by Jesus. He did not arrange it so that when we accept Him as savior, we are taken out of the world to heaven. On the contrary, He left us in the world.
It is all to easy to relax in our safety and become complacent. When was the last time you allowed God to burden you with something that caused you to change your scheduled activities so that you could either spend time in prayer or actually help some one? I am not judging, I am asking. I point at myself in the mirror and I don't like the answers I get sometimes. We can make a difference, because as we pray or labor God intervenes and changes things. Although the greatest change will always happen in us. Have you allowed yourself to be changed lately?
