What is our Ambition?

The “COFFEE NEWS” is lying on the coffee table in our lounge and when I pick it up I am reading there a quote by  Ralph Waldo Emerson:  “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”

A Bible verse is coming to my mind, namely: “It has always been my ambition to preach the GOSPEL where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else’s  foundation.”

That is the apostle Paul speaking and he says that in his letter to “all in Rome who are loved by God and called Saints.” Romans 15:20

The apostle Paul left a trail from Jerusalem to Illyricum! Why? TO PREACH THE GOSPEL.

It is also my ambition to tell others about the Lord Jesus Christ. That’s why I went to Thailand in 1966. Other missionaries were there already.

Have I left a trail in some of the villages in Thailand?
