God could have just taken us to heaven after we were saved, but He had something important for us to do...the Great Commission, "go and make disciples..." (Acts 1:8 "be my witness..."
God loves you, He has sent Christ to redeem you, He delights when you come to Him in prayer, He delights in opening doors of opportunity for us to go out & share this glorious, beautiful, life changing Gospel. May we honor Him as we pray & witness. (Colossians 4:2-6)
