Is There an Urgency in Your Mission?
By Rick Warren

“We must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent us. The night is coming, and then no one can work.” (John 9:4 NLT)

Your destiny has eternal significance. And it will impact the eternal destiny of other people, so it’s more important than any job, achievement, or goal you will reach during your life on Earth.

The consequences of your mission will last forever; the consequences of your job will not. Nothing you do will ever matter as much as helping people establish an eternal relationship with God.

This is why you must be urgent about knowing your destiny and completing your mission. Jesus said, “We must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent us. The night is coming, and then no one can work” (John 9:4 NLT).

The clock is ticking on your life mission, so don’t delay another day. Get started on your mission of reaching out to others now! We will have all of eternity to celebrate with those we have brought to Jesus, but we only have our lifetime in which to reach them.

This does not mean you should quit your job to become a full-time evangelist. God wants you to share the Good News where you are. As a student, mother, preschool teacher, salesman, manager, or whatever you do, you should continually look for people God places in your path with whom you can share the Gospel.
