Christmas starting early!

I cannot believe it. I just went to a shop, and guess what? They are already packing out Christmas decorations!
WOW, its only middle of October, and also WOW the year has gone by quick!

Ambassadors! (Part 1)

2 Corinthians 5:20 (Amplified Bible)20So we are Christ's ambassadors, God making His appeal as it were through us. We [as Christ's personal representatives] beg you for His sake to lay hold of the divine favor [now offered you] and be reconciled to God.

I have been reading and thinking about the whole ambassador thing. What does is mean, and what does it entail. I have com across a few revelations about being an ambassador for Christ, and have a few Ideas I want to share with you.

Let me start this first post with the definition of Ambassador:
–noun
1.
a diplomatic official of the highest rank, sent by one sovereign or state to another as its resident representative(ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary).
2.
a diplomatic official of the highest rank sent by a governmentto represent it on a temporary mission, as for negotiating atreaty.
3.

We are Christs Ambassadors! Think about that after reading the definition of ambassador!
An ambassador represents someone or something or a group.
What or who do you represent?
