Jesus Entrusts His Disciples with a Universal Mission
Teresa Monaghen
What an assignment! Four corners of the world. Lord, you have got to be kidding! And just when one corner is covered another corner falls apart! I know Lord, you promised to be with us too, until the end of time. You promised not to leave us orphaned and you promised you would never give us more than we can handle. We love you Lord; we DESIRE to go and go and go until everyone knows you and your love for them. EVERYONE, EVERY PLACE, UNTIL ALL CORNERS ARE COVERED.We BELIEVE it will be you working through us; we will not be alone, you will be working us bring all into ONE.
We trust you Lord and we love you. Thank you for trusting us and loving us. AMEN!

The great commandment came from the Lord was to make disciples, to teach and to baptize. He was not content to let people remain in ignorance of the truth he came to give up. He brought the message of the Father, the word of truth that is divine revelation, the truth we could not have known on our own. His disciples have received the command to bring the same truth to others, to be eager to spread the good news that Christ brought to us. The teachings of the Lord were to be turned into actions, since he wants us all to obey the commandments he gave. Faith and action -the two parts of the same command of Christ to bring others to him!
