Even today, you need to discover the things of God. Only then can you go beyond your own limits and the frame of being centered on “self.” In order to find the things of God who is limitless, you must first see yourself who is weak and incompetent. Why do you have limitations?
1. What Nobody Can Do and Where Nobody Exists
No matter how great people are, they cannot solve the emptiness and anxiety that exist in their hearts. Furthermore, nobody is capable of suppressing fantasies and delusions that enter the mind or eliminate the problems of obsessions and addictions. The world says that people can empty their minds and control their thoughts through meditation and training; however, if the void in their souls isn’t filled, their hearts will become empty and dry. It’ll be pointless like pouring water into a sieve.
2. Children Who Cannot Adapt and Children Who Wander
There are many children who come from other countries and have difficulties adapting to a mixed culture. Many children and teenagers in Korea are also wandering around without places to call their own because the pandemic has virtually prevented school life from taking place. In this world that lacks answers and help, God's desire and will is for you to preach Jesus Christ who is the only answer. God wants you to save yourself and the desperate field that wants to give up. God has saved and restored you who were once incompetent and full of scars so that you can change the field and children who are answerless and hopeless. Only God is able to accomplish that.
Dear God, may Your living and active Word be imprinted in my soul, take root in my heart, and become my nature. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
* Who Are the Third Culture KidsTCKs Already within Your Life?
TCKs do not have to be children from abroad.
Just thinking about the children whom you encounter near you or passing by and the children of foreigners whom you often meet can become the start of evangelism.
The next time you meet them, say hello and ask their names.
In addition, because another meeting isn’t guaranteed, prepare evangelism materials; small gifts; and carry them with you.
