A Reflection On Testifying About God

When I wonder how I can be an effective witness

We often think we need years of preparation and experience before we are useful to God. We don’t. We often think God needs His witnesses to have sterling reputations. He doesn’t. All that’s required is this: an encounter with Jesus and willingness to tell about it. How we complicate things! Like the ex-demoniac Jesus healed, all we’re asked to do is to “tell them everything the Lord has done” for us. It’s that simple.

Go home to your family, and tell them everything the Lord has done for you and how merciful he has been.

Mark 5:19
