My good friend GoldenVic asked.

What is a comfort zone?

A deep seated question meant at understanding the great commission.

Go therefore, He commanded.

A charge to the saints to leave their place of abode.

Make disciples of all Nations, He continued.

ALL Nations.
Not the surrounding neighborhoods and your own country,

Rather, aggressively engaged in the missionary movement the whole world.

ALL Nations,
Not only the people around you, your ethnic group or social class.

Rather,
breaking all social and ethnic barriers,
To minister the gospel to the lowest of all,
The farthest of them all,
And the poorest of them all.

He was in a place He was not supposed to be.

Leaving His glory on high,
Leaving all the apparel of Greatness and Wonders.

Donning a new apparel of pain, shame and limited strength.

All because of His love

That boundless love that propelled Him to calvary.
That love that stopped Him from unleashing Chaos upon the humans who willfully nailed Him, their messiah to the tree.

He bore it all.
And He was granted a name above all names at the end.
That at His name all knees shall bow and tongues confess that Jesus is the lord.

Now my answer to GoldenVic.

He called us to go to places we are not supposed to be.

So that we would reach those who the world deem "too far to be saved"

Touch lives, "too wicked to be changed"

Heal sicknesses and pain "too natural to be healed"

And season areas too far to be reached with the salt He inputted in us

Because the crowns that awaits at the journeys end, are not meant for all.

And His hands,
Are ready to lift only those who lift Him up in place they are NOT supposed to be,
But are where He called them TO GO.
