As things begin to heat up, John is called to participate in events that haven’t yet happened. Up to this time, John has been an observer but now he’s instructed to eat a little book, measure the temple that will be rebuilt, and record what will happen when two witnesses proclaim truth during this turbulent time. God has not washed His hands of creation, He still sends messengers to the world.   

Drawing lessons for today, Christi Robillard reminds us that God’s Word is food and truth is more than a moral code to live by. We can no longer be quiet Christians living our faith in safe shadows, we are called to action. This chapter should make us all want to double-down on our efforts to share the gospel.

In a day when we so easily get distracted with people, politicians and policies we abhor, don’t forget your mission and the work of mercy by God. Use your voice but remember that your calling is the message of Jesus Christ. Your calling is not to convert others to your political philosophy but to the Savior of the world. Do you want to win the argument or do you want to win the soul? Don’t get distracted. Don’t waste your voice. Don’t forget your mission.
