THE ONLY BIBLE
We are the only Bible many people will ever read.
We are the only sermon they will ever hear,
the only advertisement they will ever see.
If many of our friends and family who don't know the Lord are ever to grasp the wonder
of what God wants to do in a person's life,
they may have only one example open to them: us.
It is a mystery to me that God has chosen to use frail, flawed humans to communicate
His message. It seems that angels would have done a far more effective job than us. But
make no mistake about it: God works through people.
Our world is becoming an increasingly dark place spiritually. We believers need to
shine our lights! As Jesus shines through us, men and women will begin to leave behind
their lives of sin and darkness and will instead stream toward heaven's glorious, blazing
light.
But if that is to happen, and if men and women are to be drawn into the loving arms of
the Savior, we must take care to do two things: maintain and shine.
We must continue to live according to the level of spiritual maturity we have already
attained and we must hold out the hope of the gospel for others to see.
We will find our witness becoming ever stronger as we choose to walk every day with
Jesus.
