II Corinthians 8:12
NIV
For if the willingness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what he does not have.
The Message
Once the commitment is clear, you do what you can, not what you can't.
Our willingness, commitment, passion is clear--to see the hearts of the Quebecois changed to follow after the Lord. In this ministry we are doing what we can, not worrying about what we cannot do. We can pray for the Quebecois. We can seek ways to minister to the Quebecois. For exampe, we can seek ways to serve them through many different means (i.e. simple acts of service such as cooking a meal for one who cannot, fixing something broken, etc.). Through serving and different forms of ministry we share the love of Jesus. We pray for the Holy Spirit to work in the hearts of the Quebecois. God is the only one who can change the hearts of the Quebecois. We are just his ambassadors. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. (II Corinthins 5:20 ESV) We are his slaves--bought with a price to serve the Master. We are serving the Master through following our commitment and passion to see the hearts of the Quebecois changed and doing all that we can do!
