Sharing God

I have not taken the time to write in here for a while. Mainly because life has happened! I think we all know what I mean when I say that. It may be different for each of us, but when life happens, it happens. Things like blogging just are not a priority for a little while.

But it has given me a lot of time to think. A lot of time to reflect on things that have happened throughout the last couple of months. And even though some events have made more of an impact on my life than others, for one reason or another... As I sit back and think, they all lead back to the same type of "ah-ha" type moment for me.

There are so many times in our lives when we have to make a choice. Right? Wrong? Go left or right? Little white lie (which is just a fancy name for a big fat lie) or the truth?

See - no matter what kind of situation we are dealing with at this time, every moment is a moment to show God's Love to everyone we meet. It can be very had when you are in a hurry and cars are going 20mph UNDER the speed limit (yes - that happened just yesterday to me)... Or when you see someone after 15 years that now acts like your best friend when they didn't like you years ago.

Every moment is a moment to show Gods Love to everyone we meet.

I was reminded yesterday of this as I sat at a funeral for such an amazing woman. She was the true embodiment of living Gods Love to everyone she met. And even though I knew this already, to sit and listen for over an hour as one person after another shared this same thing about her, it was amazing to hear.

One friend talked about how now it is our time. Now it is our turn. We all know someone like this amazing lady who shares God in every aspect of their life. But there domes a time in our lives when we have to be that person to someone else.

It is not always easy. There are times when we are dealing with things but no one knows and you have to listen to them complain about something that is so minor compared to what you are dealing with. But to them - it is not minor. To them it is just as important as what you are going through.

Every opportunity we go through is a chance to share God. It is an opportunity to ensure that no one leaves without knowing who God is and where they would go if they were to take their last breath today.

I pray that I remember this and that I can share God with everyone I meet. That I can be that example to someone through how I live my life.

My challenge to you is to ensure that you are strong in your relationship with God. That you show His Love to everyone you come in contact with. That you do not let the trials of this world to get you down.

Many blessings to you as you enjoy your day....
