This morning I am sitting in a seminar about being a church where the people reach out into our community. It is very clear that the Bible calls us to interact with those around us in our lives to show them the love and truth of Jesus. We do not have to go any further than looking at the life of Jesus to see what His priority was. Jesus was constantly out meeting people and touching their lives. That is what our priority is to be: Everywhere and Everyday - as we interact in the world we can bring Jesus to people.
Where are you today? Who is around you today? The answer to those questions are the opportunity we have today to bring Jesus and let His power change the world. Our church has heard me say it before - but it continues to be our biggest obstacle which is taking Jesus into every day and every area of our life. Whether we are at work, home, play, school, errands, wherever and whenever bring Jesus.
What does that look like? Are you standing in a line - talk to the person next to you, show interest in them and be positive. Are you serving in the community somewhere - tell a coworker that you thought they might be interested and ask them to join you. Are you making a meal - make some extra and invite someone over. As you have opportunity to share time with people - doors will open for your relationship with Jesus to come into the conversation. You can come up with more ideas - the key is to try it and see what God will do.
Everywhere, Everyday bring Jesus...
