So....Haven't posted in a while. So much for a current blog. My bad.
But anywho, I attend this Bible Study now for Younglife and we were recently talking about how to behave as a Christian. If were supposed to spread God's word, how do we do this without being too aggressive or too passive? Where is the in between where we won't freak non-Christians out and where we would be doing absolutely nothing?
Well, my whole thing is to show love. It's really hard. I admit, there is no possible way I could love everyone. I don't even like everyone. But, guess what. You are not going to be able to change EVERYONE. It just isn't possible.
For those who don't know, I gave devotions at my old high school from sixth grade on and all I ever cared for was to inspire at least one person. Yes, our job on this Earth is to spread God's word. Christians, if you didn't know this, now you do. We all should be singing the song call "Here Am I" by Mercy Me. Here are a couple lyrics that would be great to think about:
"Whether foreign land or neighbors
Everyone's the same
Searching for the answers
That lie within your name
I want to proclaim the love of Jesus
In all I do and say
Unashamed"
That is powerful right there ladies and gentleman. No, I'm not asking you to go screaming, preaching down the street. That actually would be a deterrent. And no, there isn't a set way to spread the word to everyone. So all I have is: SHOW GOD'S AMAZING LOVE THROUGH YOUR EVERY DAY LIFE! Don't be fake now. And do not fret when you make mistakes. We are all sinners, remember? Also, patience is truly a virtue. Not only will you not be able to inspire everyone, but the people you eventually do inspire will take some serious time and work. Don't give up!
Finally, yes, God desires us to do his will on this Earth by spreading his Amazing love and amazing word; but, don't forget that you still need Him to help you. Pray to God to send his message through you to the world.
Now, get out there and live, laugh, and love!
