Conspicuous For Christ

What a privilege to be an influence for Christ in someone's life! Whether it's conducting a neighborhood Bible study or meeting with a friend to go through a book together or broaching the subject in a casual conversation at work, we can bring the perspective of a relationship with God to bear. How will they react to the mention of prayer or reference to the blessings of God? We won't know until we interject that perspective into things. They may respond with scorn or skepticism. They may just ignore your comment. It may be that your reference piques their interest and may even identify you as someone they could approach later with "religious" questions. It may even be you hear the hearty "amen," from someone you did not realize was a brother or sister in Christ. The point is, you never know how God will work. But you do know being conspicuous for Christ places you in the work of the Great Commission. Let that be our prayer as we embark on each day, that our conversation would be seasoned with grace and that our God would be pleased to use us as His instruments.
