To Know the Greatest Love Story

So do not be ashamed to testify about the Lord. 2 Timothy 1:8

Yet, I am not ashamed, because I know whom I have believed. 2 Timothy 1:12b

It seems each week brings a new theme in my heart. This week it is evangelism. Maybe you can relate to my prayer today. He is faithful to answer our prayers and give us our hearts’ desires…especially when we desire more of Him and less of us for the sake of others.

“Oh Jesus, I’m so sorry.
I sat quiet today.
I didn’t open my lips to tell your story… again.
Is it enough to speak of my personal faith,
but not to relate it to the person
sitting across the table from me?
I do believe in you,
yet I pray for a deeper,
deeper revelation of you,
Jesus.
I’m desperate for an encounter with you
that will change the way I do this life—
the way I talk with those
who haven’t heard your good news.
I desire to freely speak about You
one on one
to those I don’t know well.
I crave to bring those who have not this hope
to the Good Shepherd.
Please give me the words.
I don’t want anyone to live this life
much less spend eternity
without Love Himself.
Fill me Lord with Your story.
It is the greatest love story ever told.
Amen.”

Do you have trouble sharing the gospel? How do you tell others about Jesus?

Much love,

andy
