Everyone. Everywhere. Part 2Sample
Tell Everyone!
It can be tempting to evaluate the people in your life based on their spiritual maturity and determine whether they “need” to hear your story. We struggle with this more often than we would like to admit. We think about our friends’ lives and think, “they have never experienced anything like I have in my life, so they probably will not understand” or “they are already so in love with Jesus, they do not need to hear my testimony.”
The truth is that God is already at work in the lives of others. It is impossible for us to truly know if someone is moving toward or away from Him based simply on outward appearances. Do not let assumptions keep you from sharing your story. God invites you to be a part of other people’s spiritual journeys to faith. Your story might help connect someone to Jesus or be an encouragement to someone who is already a believer.
Questions to Ask Yourself:
- Do you feel like your testimony can be a source of encouragement for others?
- “They have never experienced anything like I have in my life, so they probably won’t understand” or “they are already so in love with Jesus, they don’t need to hear my testimony.” From reading this, which one do you relate to more?
What’s Next:
- Ask the Holy Spirit to make it clear and guide you to who He wants you to share your story with. Pray that He would remove any preconceived ideas about their spiritual journey and give you eyes to see them like He does.
