The Call-Least of These

 Then I said,
"Woe is me, for I am ruined!
Because I am a man of unclean lips,
And I live among a people of unclean lips;
For my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts Isaiah 6:5

Most Christians think that only missionaries and pastors are called to spread the Gospel, but that is not true. All followers of Christ receive the call, most just do not answer it. There are so many people who have never even heard of Jesus, yet so many of us go on with our daily lives like they do not exist or wait for someone else to go. The band the Least of These feels this as well as they write in their song The Call: 
 
They don't even know
If they could only hear
If they could only hear
I've got five fingers on each of my hands to count all the commands that I've broken
Woe is me for i am a man of unclean lips
You set the coal upon my lips and take away my shame

Our lips are unclean because of the excuses we make of why we don't share Jesus. We must cast off our fear and apathy and answer YES when God calls us to go and share Jesus whether it be across the street or across the globe.
