What does Jesus want us to do for the Sawi?

To be frank, I found this question the most challenging one from the list. I am unsure whether it was due to my hazy faith or to my lack of knowledge in the subject but in any case I could not come about with an answer. It was not until I read Levi Miller's brilliant post that I was revealed with what Jesus really wanted us to do for the Sawi and other cultures.

As Levi had previously mentioned, Jesus wants us to shine His light on others; to be ambassadors of His Word. Jesus wants us to spread the news of His death and how it bestows salvation upon us. To build on that, I would like to examine not just what, but how Jesus wants us to accomplish this feat.

Jesus desires us to be ambassadors, not solely through what we preach but also by action and example. It is difficult for a person to lead someone if he or she does not follow what they preach. It is only through example that a person can lead, and this is what Richardson constantly did during his stay with the Sawi. Richardson often looked to help those who were diseased and injured as well as putting himself in between feuds in order to settle them. Through his actions he was able to not only portray himself as a good man and worthy of listening, but also set the example for the Christian Sawi to follow.

This is exactly what God is looking for us to do. To set the example for others to see and model and through this preach the way of Christ and His death for our salvation. We may not always be a role model, but is only through our failures that we can really grow, for what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
