I’m Splashing This Precious Sister’s Words Everywhere I Can!

Glory to Jesus!  I just clicked into our NJM Facebook page and saw a word posted by one of us, Dennise Herzig.  I was so honored by her trust, and so humbled, so blessed by her passion for Jesus, her passion for souls.  

I know her words are posted on our Facebook Page, and I know they are posted as a comment to my last blog entry.  But just so they get every possible chance of being read by everyone who checks into whatever, I’m prioritizing and posting them here as well.

My precious brothers and sisters, there is one, simple, most important thing that we ALL must get past ourselves, our fears, busyness, pre-occupations… and feel DEEPLY within us.  To receive the gift of precious salvation and not turn around and allow this one reality to reach the deep of our hearts, deep beneath our own concerns and needs (not to minimize any of them) would be just plain heartbreaking…

PEOPLE NEED THE LORD.  It is as breathtakingly true a statement as has ever been spoken.  Each one of us so desperately needed him before we came to him - how many times have both you and I thought, “I can’t imagine life without him.”  

Yet all of us walk by millions every day who do live without him.  How can we walk by them without hearing their heart cry, without their lostness and brokenness deeply piercing our hearts?  How can we so freely accept such a glorious gift, but not be moved to push past ourselves and extend the same to others?  Oh glory to Jesus!

I would implore you to open your heart and allow Dennise’s words below to flood over every corner of it.  And why?  Because they are true beyond true.  Because they express the heart of Jesus.  Because not one of us who are working hard on this end to save souls, whether it be us trying to accomplish JESUS NGL or anyone who is going for it in outreach ministry… can take even one step without you.

I tell you, I have sat with African leaders in their cardboard shacks and seen their tears because they don’t have the resources to reach people like they know they can if properly equipped.  I have cried tears alongside them.  Again, nothing of God’s kingdom gets accomplished without… you.

In all humility, please read Dennise’s words below.  Open your heart to the word of the Lord that is surely within them.  Then don’t give in to distraction or busyness or even, possibly, the fear that causes a person to knee-jerk (the knee-jerk that never comes when we stop in at Starbuck’s or Mcd’s and spend so much more).

In all humility, let us open our hearts… and look to Jesus.  Here comes Dennise!

Why have I joined as a producer????May I quote a statement I made a while back. This was one of the very first things I wrote on my twitter and my facebook. Here it goes…

“Do you want to do something thats eternal? Do you want to save someones life? Then go to http://www.newjesusmovie.com and be blessed and moved. So moved to become a participant for this new movie to be made. This movie will bring lives to Jesus– who saves lives for eternity. Go there now and check it out.”

The words eternal and eternity have been on my mind now for a couple of years.–More like four years now.

Those of us who know Jesus–who have Jesus….. Do you not want someone else to have him too??

In terms of doing something thats eternal and has eternal consequences…….
Normally I would be very voicetrous ( Is that a word?–ha, ha) about this.

But may I say this with the softest of voices? …..(but with the most pleading and urgency– thousands and more of people are dieing each day.And if not physically–than inside…they are dieing inside)–again with the softest of voices….Friend — what–are–you–doing? What– will–you–do? Come on lets do this–Its time now….Lets give them Jesus.”

Thank you so much, Dennise…  Please, reader of this blog (and there are so many of you that it is scary to realize how few have taken Dennise’s step)…

May I humbly ask if you are not yet a Producer of this outreach film?  If yes, and you’d like to see this film fulfilled, I can tell you, it will only be fulfilled through you.  So may I humbly invite you…

If you’re in the USA, you can contribute $10 by texting the letters ”njm” to 85944.  (you will be asked to confirm, please do so or your donation won’t go through).  The $10 will show as a charge on your phone bill, and they forward it to NJM. 

Otherwise, please follow the site links to Donate, Become a Producer… and thank you so very, very much. 

Together we can do this – apart from you, we simply cannot.  Thank you for taking this seriously and stepping out - I know the Lord is smiling!  Glory to his precious name – Jesus!”

    Thank you, Bruce and Dennise, for sharing. Dennise, I think you posted on your Facebook everything I have wanted to say to folks. My heart aches for people to give to this film so that it can be completed. The need is so very, very great. I know that in my life circumstances just keep popping up that deplete my financial resources (car accident, mechanic fees, needs of family members, etc.), but then again, $10!!! That’s not a huge amount, not at all. Folks, if you have not sent your $10 in, why not?? Please make a difference for eternity. Invest in the future, someone’s eternal future. Perhaps the life that Jesus saves will be one that you’ve been praying for. . .for a long time. Give, folks, it really isn’t that hard. . .please.
