SHARING YOUR FAITH (07-10-10)

Matthew 10:32-33
“Everyone who acknowledges me before others I will acknowledge before my heavenly Father. But whoever denies me before others, I will deny before my heavenly Father.”
---------------------------------------------------

Yes, we say grace as a family before meal – inside our house. But how about when we are eating out? Do you enjoin your family to say prayer of thanks before meal – in a restaurant? Or are you shy to do it?

Yes, we would sing our hearts out when doing videoke with our friends so we can score “100”. But how about singing songs of praise? Do you feel shy singing worship songs during the mass or Sunday services?

Are you afraid to share Jesus to others? Do you rather talk about worldly things and share green jokes with others rather than sharing with that person how good God has been to you?

Perhaps the thought of sharing your faith in Jesus Christ causes feelings of fear and guilt in your heart. Would you like to know the secret to fearlessly sharing your faith in Jesus Christ? Sadly, there is no special trick, but it is comforting to know that God hears your prayers, and He is faithful to grant you anything according to His will.

Sharing your personal testimony is often an effective way of sharing God with others. The reason we share our faith in Jesus Christ is to lead people into a relationship with God. When we accept Jesus as our personal Savior, we are given a responsibility of sharing His love with others.

And in Heaven, the first question you will answer is “How many person are in Heaven because of you?” What would be your answer?

Let us pray +

Thanks, Lord, from all of us. May we ever feel Your Presence. May we ever serve You in our thought, word, and deed. May we experience eternal peace, joy, love, and light. Thank You for Your greatest gift that is Jesus. May we have the courage to share Him and Your love to others everyday of our life. Yes, thank You, Lord. Amen +

The Lord is king; he is robed in majesty.
