2 Corinthians 5: 20 We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.
Paul is promising eternity to the followers in Corinth. He explains how good our lives will be in God's kingdom. He explains that Christ is the reason we gain admission to heaven, and he asserts that any hardship on Earth is just a reminder of the glory to come in the afterlife.
I love the idea of being God's ambassador. We are the only representative of God that some people see, so we must make the effort to be a good example. It won't always be easy, but we persevere because we know life on Earth is just a small part of our existence.
Prayer: I pray that all God's people would become aware of his loving presence in their lives. I seek comfort for the suffering and sing praises to our mighty God. I want to represent Him on this Earthly stage so that everyone can experience the joy and peace He has ready for all of us who only ask.
Amen
