All Good Things
There’s an intriguing verse in the Bible, in the tiny book of Philemon.
It’s Philemon 1:6 and it says, “I pray that you will be active in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of all the good things that you have in Christ Jesus.”
You would think God would have said, “I pray you’ll be active in sharing your faith because I need your help so much.” Right? But He says, share your faith so you will understand all the riches you have in Christ.
It’s amazing! The God who needs no one has chosen to work through and in His children.
We can bless others by sharing with them the Good News of salvation through Jesus Christ, and in turn we are blessed as our understanding grows.
As we watch people’s lives being transformed by God, we can more fully grasp what He has done in our own lives. [It’s a win/win situation!]
Let’s joyfully share our faith, knowing that God will bless us as well as those we are talking with.
