Telling The Story

I am having a little bit of trouble with a knee which requires me to use a crutch for some extra support. With this comes questions from everyone who knows me asking about what happened that caused this. I really do not like feeling helpless or weak.  So I tend to get a little embarrassed when I tell and retell the story.



This has gotten me to thinking about how we feel about sharing the story of our Lord. Do we get embarrassed or too shy to share Him with others? Do we think that others will think we are weak if we do?

Paul, in the scriptures tells us that he has no problems sharing the message of what God's plan for us is.....

Romans 1:16

The Message (MSG)

16-17 It’s news I’m most proud to proclaim, this extraordinary Message of God’s powerful plan to rescue everyone who trusts him, starting with Jews and then right on to everyone else! 

Wouldn't it be a different world if we all could go out boldly and tell others about what our Lord has done for us. Instead of being too timid, or proud, or worried about what everyone thinks of us. It was a good thing that Jesus didn't back down from all He did for us. 

In this season of giving why not give the most wonderful present anyone could ever get. Tell them about how the Savior came as a babe, and would grow up and go to the cross to give all of us the chance for eternal life with our God. 

Let's not be like me, let's not be too shy or embarrassed to tell and retell the story.

Have a blessed Christmas season!
