Sharing Christ

And I pray that as you share your faith with others it will grip their lives too, as they see the wealth of good things in you that come from Christ Jesus." Philemon 6 (LNT)

Sharing Christ with others takes practice. All of us have missed opportunities to share about God's goodness but fortunately we have a loving, caring Heavenly Father who administers grace when we realize that we have let an opportunity slip away.

Through the years of walking with Christ, I am learning to take the time to thank God each day for the many blessings in my life. When I consciously do this, I am better prepared to share about His goodness with others. Sending His son Jesus to die on the cross for my sins, my family, answered prayers, my church family, etc. are a few things that I try to remind myself of each day.

Therefore when God places you or me in line at the department store or purchasing gas or texting a friend and an unexpected God appointment shows up, we are prepared to give a quick Christ is good commercial. Why? Because we have already reviewed in our minds the good things He has done.

When we consciously have our eyes and ears open to the Holy Spirit, we cannot help but be aware of those unbelievable God appointed times to share with others. Taking the time to walk through those open doors of opportunity allows our faith to increase and allows others to see the goodness of Christ in us.

Heavenly Father, as I step out in faith and boldly share Christ with others today, may they see a wealth of goodness that can only come from you. In Jesus Name, Amen!
