Day 26, September 19: Telling your story

Notes:

If you are a believer in Christ, you have a story. Here on Day 26, the action step is for you to put together the elements of your story. Don’t be intimidated by the process. Most of the time when someone asks us to tell them something about ourselves, we talk about our family or our vocation. We should also be ready to tell our spiritual story. We must be ready to explain how we came to faith in Jesus. If you have not already done so, start putting your salvation story together. Write it in outline form or write it verbatim if that helps. Just be ready to share your story. God will give you the opportunity to tell it. Yes, we are to make disciples. Yes, we are to go into the harvest fields. And yes, we must always be ready to explain where and how we gained our hope as believers. If we walk with Christ, and if we make ourselves available to share the Good News with others, God will put people in our paths. As you grow as a Great Commission Christian, you will be amazed at how many times you have an opportunity to share the gospel and tell your story. Most people love to hear a good story. You have the greatest story. You once were blind, but now you see. You once were lost, but now you are found. Get Ready to tell your story. Countless people are waiting. (Pray & Go, by Thom S. Rainer, pgs. 189, 190, 191)
