Tips for Mission

There are many times when we're on mission, we encounters some conflict of interests between us and the people that we are woring with. This is because we all have different ways of approaching our ministries. When the mission exceed 4 or 5 weeks, the attitudes, behaviors, conversations and exchange of ideas will change. Either change toward good or toward bad side. Before we get into that one more deeper, let us review some things that we need to be aware of. When the mission start at the mission ground, there is a huge excitement present on the group if the mission ground is new to the team or if the team members are new to each other. The excitements exist because of the interesting place, or interesting stories. Well, that is good. But that will not last long if the page of your mind is not focusing on your mission. Let's start with excitement. Two types of excitement and these will lead you either toward better and healthy mission, or COULD lead you toward frustration that could cause you to be lack of teamwork. The first excitment is the excitment of how you see God providing these team members for your mission and how you see God providing the mission ground for you to serve HIM. This is the excitement that we all want to have in mind every time we go on the field. The second one is how you see people and get excited about their goofiness and how you see the mission ground that fits your interests. This is good, but if you go extreme on this one, it could lead you to distruction because your mind will be off from the goal of the mission. The goal of the mission is to meet the will of God, and not your personal interest if your interest is not allign with God's will. (TO BE CONTINUED)
