Just a thought...

When I was in Cape Town in June following the World Cup Gabe read me the following quote one night that has stuck in my mind and I've been thinking out since...
"Progress should mean we are continually changing the world to fit the vision, instead we are always changing the vision." GK Chesterton...
The thought then is this, what is the vision?
I can't get away from believing that our vision has to be the commission ( Matt 28:18-20 ). If it isn't then I think we missing the point! The words Jesus chose to leave us with were those, that in itself highlights their significance!
The vision needs to be the commission in its entirity, it is three fold!
DISCIPLE NATIONS - BAPTIZE - TEACH
It speaks of God's heart not only to see nations saved but to see them reach a maturity in God that is lasting! All three are vitally important when it comes to people maturing further in God. It speaks of God's heart for His church - His bride -and His desire to see us move on in our faith and raise up others into it continually until He comes back for us!
Anyway...that's just my thought!
big love..
