Today's reading: Isaiah 40: 1 - 5, 9 - 11

Comfort, comfort my people, says your God. Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and cry to her that her warfare is ended, that her iniquity is pardoned, that she has received from the LORD's hand double for all her sins. A voice cries: "In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together, for the mouth of the LORD has spoken."Get you up to a high mountain, O Zion, herald of good tidings; lift up your voice with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good tidings, lift it up, fear not; say to the cities of Judah, "Behold your God!"Behold, the Lord GOD comes with might, and his arm rules for him; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him. He will feed his flock like a shepherd, he will gather the lambs in his arms, he will carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are with young.

Today's reading shows how GREAT and AWESOME our Lord is! That is why we must do everything in His name. The mission trip would be good platform for us to show and act as ambassadors of Christ and let Him wok through us to help others. And hopefully whatever that we do, we will offer it up to the Lord and not do it for our own glory or for other selfish reasons.
Whatever you do, think not of yourself, but of God.
