Today’s Reading: Mark 4:26-34
The seed will grow no matter if we sleep or we get up---the seed will grow! You know I think I worry too much about what effect I have on people when I witness to them, but it just hit me---all God is asking me to do is plant the seed and leave the rest to him. I should take each opportunity and plant the seed of the gospel and give everything else to Christ. As he explains the growth of the mustard seed I think about how something we may say or do can make such a huge impact on a person’s life. When we do things for others with the genuine love of Jesus Christ than we should expect that act to grow just as the mustard seed does. All Jesus wants us to do is live each moment for him and when we do we are a witness ---our life is a witness. However, I think as Christians we get lax about witnessing and use the “my life is a witness” as an excuse for the lack of action. Now don’t get me wrong, our life should show Christ to others, but I believe with all my heart that he wants us doing, doing, doing things for him. We can’t sit back any longer, we have to get moving! Don’t know what he wants you to do? Ask him and I promise he will show you. I don’t know about you but I am excited about tomorrow, I am excited to learn what opportunities Jesus will place before me!
