" WITNESSING IS A MUST !!! "

To Witness is to give a testimony: A person who may be called to give testimony concerning an agreement or event that has been observed. Now, in the Bible, an animal or object, such as a mound, may also be designated as a witness in the sense that it is personified as an observer of the agreement or event, or viewed as a symbol on it. Our relatives are often the hardest people to tell about God. Yet we should look for opportunities to tell them what God is doing in our lives because we can have an important influence on them. Question for you: Do you take the time to Share with your Children? Do you have traditions - Special Dates or Special Places - to help your Children learn about God's work in your life? Do you take time to tell them what God has done for you - Forgiving and Saving you, answering your prayers, supplying your needs? Retelling your story will help keep memories of God's faithfulness alive in your family. Our responsibility to tell others about Jesus is witnessing. Now, we are to do it- whether it is next door or to another country - and make disciples. It is not an option, but a command to all who call Jesus "LORD." We are not all Evangelists in the formal sense, but we have all received gifts that we can use to help fulfill the Great Commission. As we obey, we have comfort in the knowledge that Jesus is always with us. Until Next Time... Jim,
