I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 19th of June, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We start in the Gospel of Mark 16:15:

“Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.”

Just that far - we need to do it! We can’t keep Jesus hidden in our homes. We have to tell the world the wonderful news. I read a beautiful illustration in one of Charles Swindoll's devotionals. This is how the story goes: “During the reign of Oliver Cromwell, the British government began to run low on silver for coins. Lord Cromwell sent his men to the local cathedral to see if they could find any of the precious metal there. After investigating, they reported: “The only silver we can find is in the statues of the saints standing in the corners.” To which the radical soldier and statesman of England replied: “Well melt down the saints and put them into circulation!” That brief but direct order states the essence of the practical goal of authentic Christianity, not rows of silver saints crammed into the corners of cathedrals, but melted saints circulating through the mainstream of humanity.”

Isn’t that beautiful? You and I have to get out there and we have to be prepared to be melted if necessary, to be mocked, to be criticised but to make a difference, to tell people about Jesus Christ. It is no good keeping your Christianity hidden. We need to get out there and tell the people, just like Oliver Cromwell got those saints, melted them, made them into coins and sent the coins all over England. Let us get out there, not just be a Christian on Sunday morning, but Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and make a difference in a world that is desperate to hear the truth.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,
Goodbye.
