AMBASSADORS OF GOD'S LOVE
Do you know
What an ambassador is
An ambassador is a diplomatic official
Of the highest rank
Sent by ONE sovereign state
To another
As its resident representative
The United States has ambassadors
To Italy, Ireland, Japan
And ALMOST
Every country imaginable
In 2 Corinthians 5
Saint Paul calls us
“AMBASSADORS of GOD'S LOVE”
“WE are therefore
Christ's ambassadors
As though God
Were making his appeal through us” 2 Corinthians 5
That is
Exactly what we are to do
BECOME in this world
Ambassadors of God's LOVE
In other words
A representative of God's love
And to CARRY it
To everyone in this world
And we carry a rank too
The rank of apostle or disciple
Of God in today's world
The 21st century
And we
Don't even have to say a thing
IF we are living right
FOR people will know
We belong to God
AND TO LOVE
Just by the very example
Of our life
DISCIPLESHIP
Refers to the act of following
And learning from a teacher
Especially God or Jesus
And ALL we have to do
To learn from God
Is to pick up the GOOD BOOK
and read about Jesus
And the Apostles
And we too
Will be apostles
By putting what we learn
Into action
This makes us
AMBASSADORS OF GOD'S LOVE
A representative of God and Christ
By carrying the message
To everyone that we meet
And we
Do NOT have to go
Anywhere special
Just take it with us
Wherever we go
You are
The resident representative
Of God's love
In the world today
You are
AN AMBASSADOR OF GOD'S LOVE
