Disciples make Disciples

 

I'm doing as best as I can, God. 

Someone on TV said the other day that Disciples make Disciples. What he meant is that all Christians are tasked to evangelise. He explained that we can't all be preachers, pastors, knock from door-to-door, or hand out leaflets in the streets; but we show we are Christians by the way we live.

Let's admit it, we are not all good examples of Christianity by the way we live are we? I get irritable by stupidity in real life or by various experts on TV teaching the silly obvious.

But we can be Disciples, I thought, by what we write on our Blogs and social media outlets. Technology has given us a new, free, opportunity to express our Faith in a gentle encouraging way which could prompt someone to want to discover more about God and Christ in their lives. We never know who reads what we write. There are many people out there who have never learnt about God and Jesus. Can you imagine if your words were the first step for them on their path to Heaven?

Let's consider this: Jesus started with twelve followers. He had no Internet. How many "followers" have we got? Can you imagine what we can achieve with His help?

Let's us pray first ... and then start writing.
