Missing in Action

  As Christians we are all a part of God's Army.  Every soldier has a specific duty to perform (check out Romans chapter 12), and when that job doesn't get done another has to step up and do it along with his job, or several others have to pitch in to share the workload - either way the job will get done. God has a plan, and that plan will go forward with or without the missing in action.  Those missing in action will have to answer for their absence.  I spent a little time in the army, and the term for the no shows really is A.W.O.L. - I know that, but missing in action sounds better in my story - so you will just have to deal with it!  Sorry!

Anyway, God has big plans for all of us, and His rewards are better than anything you or I could ever imagine.  Have you been Missing in Action?  You still have time to report for duty.  Give your pastor a call this week and let him know you are ready to report for duty.  Be prepared for a long pause - he has just passed out and will  need a little time to recover - but hold on because he will be back on the phone as soon as he recovers.  Then just tell him what you are able to do.  I can assure you that he will find a job that fits you to a tee, and if it isn't a  perfect fit, no big deal, there is some other soldier Missing in Action whose place you can help fill until you find your fit.

So sign up, sign on, sign in, whatever it takes, just don't get left out of the action.  Oh, and don't forget to be in church on Sunday - that where we all get our basic training.  God bless, and have a great week
