Luke 10:3 Go! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.
When Jesus asked a few dozen people to go out and spread the gospel He did not gloss over things and tell them it was all going to be easy work; He warned them of the dangers!
There is a whole lot of work to do as Christians in this world – God promised His gospel would be told all over the world and He has tasked us, mankind, with doing that!
We go out as the people of peace into neighbourhoods where there is violence and fighting, danger and pitfalls… but we go out together with Christ who stays by our sides and helps guide us where we are needed most of all.
