Hey everyone! I told you all I’d be posting more often, and to fulfill that promise, I am now writing my second post in only… 1 month? Yeah, well… haha! I wish I could’ve written more, God sure has been doing a lot in my life lately.
First, do you have a person in your life that is unsaved? Of course you do. Maybe you’re not close friends with them, maybe you only know their name, but everyone knows someone that needs Jesus (and if you don’t, you might want to get out more. 
…
I know I know, you hear it all the time… You need to share Jesus. But I hope in this post to encourage you just a little bit to step further outside your comfort zone.
(WARNING: rabbit trail ahead… AAAAAHHH!!!)
But before I do, what is it with this whole ‘comfort zone’ thing anyways? We always ALWAYS hear that especially in regards to sharing our faith. You don’t hear nonchristians speaking of their comfort zone, pretty much ever. (Let’s get out of our comfort zone and share a cigarette with a non-smoker… O.o ) But Christians use it all the time. Why do you think that is? (Not a rhetorical question, btw… Chime in!) And if a Christian’s ‘comfort zone’ must be breached every time we share our faith, perhaps this whole comfort zone mentality needs to be thrown out like the stinky smelly dirty diaper it is. (A pleasant sentiment, no?)
Please take a moment and listen to this: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fv6sQKHdgOA&feature=related)
Back on subject now.
We are LAZY.
Do you know how many people haven’t heard the Gospel? Sure, they may have seen a Christian smiling at them and thought, ‘hmm… that’s a nice smile…’ but people, we have to understand that merely being a nice person around non-Christians, though also a command of Christ, does NOT in and of itself tell anyone that they have sinned and need Christ for eternal life!
Did you know, sharing the Gospel can take as little as three seconds? Sure, you can take as long as you want, but do not let ‘I don’t have the time’ as an excuse stand in the way of someone hearing the Gospel for the first time. Imagine 80 years from now, when most of us are in eternity, the only moments that will matter are those few seconds in which we each decided whether or not to trust in Jesus for our eternal security. Do you not want to be used by God to plant a seed? (that was rhetorical.)
(Luke 19:39-40)
“Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.”
But He answered and said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out.”
Jesus, here is speaking of His OWN disciples. People who had seen His miracles… He is declaring to all that if WE, Christ’s disciples, keep silent, He will use rocks! We ought to be ashamed of our silence, that Christ might resort to inanimate objects to proclaim His glory to creation. Ask God for the words to speak, and an opportunity to witness… God bless you all!
Fight for Christ, proclaim His name!
