To the Ends of the Earth
God is all-wise, all-knowing, all-powerful, all-present, faithful, sovereign, holy, good, righteous, glorious, loving, unchanging. God is the same everywhere, but He as Christ is not known everywhere. God is the same in a village in Africa, as He is in China, as He is in Israel, as He is in India, as He is in every Island in the ocean, as He is in South America, and as He is in the United States. The difference is that He is known as Savior in some of those places, even if there are those who don’t believe it, but there are the places where He as Savior (In the form of man, Jesus Christ) is not known at all; unheard of, unfathomed, unspoken. He will always be all-knowing, but there are places where He as Savior is not known to man that lives there and with those people and in those places is where I would like to go someday. Earlier today I posted a song about God's glory seen in His creation, about living a life in obedience out of praise, and it ends with the question, "What am I going to do with this life?" The Holy Spirit is giving me convictions that is answering that question. If God is everywhere at once, but not known as Christ our Savior everywhere... then that is where I should be, with those people as Salt and Light!
