A Daily Devotion for Thursday, October 8th

Mark 16:15-16

He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.”

I worry about those who don’t believe. I have even decided God must give unbelievers a “last chance” at their final moments. This gives me a sense of comfort, yet I am certain it is not supported by scripture. But the other side of this coin is very much supported and upheld in scripture. Those who believe will be saved. This is why it is so important for me to try to help even one nonbeliever to become a believer. I just have never seemed to be able to make a difference. We know God gives us opportunities. I am likely missing many of them.

Holy Father, please don’t stop giving me opportunities to make a difference. I want to be your disciple and help to turn a non-believer to you. You have the power, please give me the opportunity. I am so thankful to you. Please give me a role in your story. Amen
