Matthew 28:18-20
"Therefore as you go make disciples of all nations baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Teaching them all things I have taught you and Remember I will be with you till the end of the age."
Literally this is our purpose in life as a Christian!
This weekend while at deer camp it was Enzley's first time as the triggerman. One evening as we sat together in the stand about 30 minutes before dark a behemoth walked out. I saw him first seriously a giant whitetail. He was 40 yards and broadsided a chip shot for the rifle, I whispered to Enzley to make a good shot. He didn't shoot or even raise the rifle, I asked are you gonna shoot but he couldn't see him. The buck was on a mission to find a hot doe and kept cruising and we saw him through small openings through the thick bottom. Enzley never shot and when the buck was in the wide open I was proud of him for not taking a pop shot at him.
As I sat there I thought about how many times I looked to the large field behind me for a perfectly present opportunity in full. However the purpose animal was presented in windows through small openings.
I believe many times we stare at the fields for this big elaborate purpose for God to reveal in full, while He shows us moment by moment through glimpses of the big picture. All He really ask of us is to fully surrender to Him and share with others as we go along in life moment by moment.
