The other day I had someone ask me if I believed Muslims would go to
Heaven. When I said no because they didn't believe Jesus was the Son of God, he responded, “Well why doesn’t somebody go over there
and tell them they’re wrong if it’s pointless anyways?” The whole tone of the
conversation was lighthearted, and while he was joking, there was still some
truth to what he said. Even though I believe they’re wrong, how often do I
apathetically respond to that fact? It’s so easy to look the other way and just
believe that they will never embrace Christianity. I’d even beg to say that it
reflects a lack of trust in what God can do in the lives of people who follow
other religions. He has a heart for them just as much.
I love the lyrics by Hillsong that say:
Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me
Break my heart from what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdoms cause
As I go from nothing to
Eternity
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me
Break my heart from what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdoms cause
As I go from nothing to
Eternity
I need to learn to never forget how powerful God is. He can change hearts of stone…it was
never my job anyways.
