whenever we are out of town on Sundays, whether we are on vacation or at the lake, my dad always has church for us. this sunday was no different. we spend a good hour on sunday morning just talking with each other about Christianity and faith. growing up, i knew my parents were full of wisdom just by their actions. now that i am older, i can visibly see their wisdom. we talked about sharing the Word with non-believers. at 19, i have never actually done this. i live in this Christian bubble and believe that everyone is just like me. my parents shared with us stories where they have had to verbalize their faith. they admitted that it was not easy and the words did not just come flowing from their mouth. i always think that when i am in that situation, God will give me the words. while that is true, its halfway not. i have to prepare myself. i have to know what to say if/when i am put in that situation. i know it wont be easy, but isn't that the beauty of it? to challenge your faith in this way? we are here to share the Word of God with people who do not know it. we are to love just as Christ has loved us. we are to show it in our words and actions. to be honest, i can't wait to be able to share my faith with a non-believer. i know it might take time, but oh, how it would feel to share the joy i feel everyday with someone else! it excites me and i pray that God would allow that opportunity to occur. God knows me so well; before right now, i would not be ready for this. however, in the past few months, God has shown me how much he is capable of and how immense His love is. i cant wait for the chance to share what He has done in my life!!
rents :: thanks for the wisdom you shared this week and have always shared.
have a joyful day!
