The nature of Christ not only offers comfort but also demands a response of faith and trust. As we navigate the challenges and changes of life, holding fast to the truth of Jesus Christ assures us of His sufficiency in all things.

The call to want more from our relationship with God is a call to active participation in His kingdom work. It’s about moving beyond complacency, stepping out in faith, and being proactive stewards of the gifts God has given us. 

Let's explore the profound implications of the Christian mission, in Luke chapter 10, where Jesus sends out the 72 disciples. This passage serves as a cornerstone for understanding our role and responsibilities as followers of Christ.

It's so important that we live a life that reflects Jesus. Just like in the movie "The Truman Show," where the protagonist's life is constantly under surveillance, we too, as Christ followers, need to realize our actions are always being watched by others.

What do you see when you look at your life? Do you see insurmountable barriers or do you see a cause that cannot be stopped? As Christ followers, we must be people who see opportunities for God to work, rather than obstacles that are unbeatable.

The miraculous event of Jesus feeding the 4,000, emphasizes that His miracles always have a motive and purpose beyond the spectacle, to glorify God and edify us. Jesus' deep compassion for the crowd is a model for us to follow.
