When it comes to evangelizing, when it comes to sharing the
redemptive story of Jesus Christ, when it comes to sharing our story, we look
for an easy 1-2-3 process to guide us. Can you blame us? Every new appliance or
electronic device has an easy to use process to get it started. Fast food
chains have step-by-step processes for placing your order. We’re saturated with
guides and directions, structure and process.
Why should sharing our story be any different?
You could probably map out your own strategy for sharing
your story. You could probably detail your every step, your every move, your
every word. But, people are different. What
works for you may not work for someone else. There is, however, one step
that we must all take.
This one step, this universal, everybody’s gotta do it step,
is just that, a step. It’s that first step out of your comfort zone. It’s that
first step away from what’s familiar. It’s that awkward, challenging step
towards the unknown.
What will they think?
How will they respond?
You’re not alone in this process. Remember, it’s a step that
everyone must take. As long as you remain silent, you remain an advocate for
nothing. The moment you decide to take
that step, the moment you decide to speak up, the moment you realize someone
else’s future is more important than your present, you become an advocate for
Christ.
Be brave.
Take that first step.
Do it today.
Life
is filled with moments, with possibilities, will you make the most of them?
