Can we walk the walk!
Can we walk the walk? This mission of spreading the gospel is sometimes a very hard thing for most of us, especially if you are not a bible scholar. You fear things like what will people think, what will they say, what if they ask that question and I don't know the answer! That is why I love this verse. People can understand love more than they can any verse or Biblical story. The sharing of love can cross any race, any culture, and any language; and the great thing about it is the fact that we are all capable of this!
Its hard to imagine that as christians we are always evangelizing whether we like it or not. There is always somebody watching! So with that understanding we realize that most of our evangelism is done through our actions. The way we treat people, the way we react to things, what makes us angry, the things that we are passionate about and the way we show the love of God are all parts of evangelism. Yes, it is kind of scary but it can also be exciting depending on what kind of story we are writing! You see if there is always someone watching who doesn't know Jesus then everything we do is writing the biography of Jesus to that person. So, if you were to title the biography of the story you have been writing, what would you call it?
