Every Day: Sent

It's simply amazing to think we are, every day, sent. 

In John 20:21, Jesus says, "Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you." Jesus sends his followers out as sent ones to deliver something.

What am I to deliver? What good news, what encouragement, what blessing, what aid, what prayer, what hope, what truth? Or rather--and better--not what but whom?

I'm to deliver God wherever I go.

The day changes when we receive the mission: We're sent.
