"I didn't know because no one told me."
Ever heard that one before? Ever missed out on something because you weren't told? I thought about this yesterday as I heard from a childhood friend on Facebook and found out that her father, a man I knew and respected, had passed away suddenly in 2005. Of course, I had no way of knowing because we'd lost touch over the years, but it got me to thinking further about this idea.
This week's message is brief, for I want you to think about this:
How many people do you know that you have not shared how Christ has made a difference in your life?
How sad would it be for you to find out that someone you know and love has not responded to Christ's offer of grace because, "No one had ever told [me]."
I promise you it's a higher number than you think; and that you have a golden opportunity to share it with them. Not by preaching to them or 'guilt-tripping' them, but by sharing how Christ has made a difference in your life. But then again, that leads to one final piece of food-for-thought:
Has professing the Christian faith made a difference in your life?
See you Sunday!
