Dr. Seuss and the Gospel

Dr. Seuss and the Gospel by Keith Cook

"Faith without works is dead." James 2:17

My granddaughter, Stella, is full of life and into everything. We are constantly having to run to keep up with her. She loves bringing books to Grammy & Papa for us to read with her.  Today while reading a story I ran across this quote:  "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not."  Dr. Seuss

The Dr. was right. You may not think that you can get a lot done with just a few prayers, a couple of dollars, or only a day or two a month to help or volunteer but you really can. What can you do right now?

You can pray - Your prayers keep the Gospel going out. Your prayers help keep evangelists on the go for Jesus. Because you pray the Spirit of God is moving to save, heal, bless, protect, and provide for unseen and unknown thousands. Keep it up. Keep the prayers going up. Care enough to pray a whole awful lot.

You can give - Your strategic and timely gifts to churches and ministries allow you to join with them in taking the Gospel farther than you ever imagine. Your financial giving to ministries that matter and your spirit led participation with those ministries and churches makes eternal impact. Winston Churchill once said, "We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give."  Give enough to show you care an awful lot.

You can help - Your personal participation in ministry to others shows you care a whole awful lot. In working with our On The Go GoTeam short term mission and outreach volunteers and our GoCare Volunteers down through the years I have learned that these anointed and faithful servant of Christ don't necessarily have the time; they just take the time because they have the mind and compassion of Christ!

Daily Prayer Focus:  Lord, show me how I can be On The Go for Jesus!

On The Go Prayer Focus: On The Go's World Outreach Center (WOC). This is our main office and training facility. Pray for God to protect the building, guard the mechanical and structural aspects of the facility, and use the facility for maximum eternal benefits.

Thank you for taking the time to pray for this important division of On The Go Ministries. For more information on any our ministries here at On The Go, you may send your questions to info@onthego.org.
