If Not You, Then Who?

If Not You, Then Who?

Excerpts from Battle Cry Good vs. Evil, Chapter 20: Saul of Tarsus Becomes the Apostle Paul:

What makes you think you are different than any of the characters in the Bible?  Why would you think you’re not worthy?  Why would you think it can’t be you?  No matter where you are in your spiritual walk, you need to keep striving to be the best you can be, in Christ.  You need to shine your Light to become that beacon of hope for others.  Paul says in Second Corinthians 5:17-20 (NLT), “This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person.  The old life is gone; a new life has begun!  And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ.  And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him.  For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them.  And he gave us the wonderful message of reconciliation.  So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us.  We speak for Christ when we plead, ‘Come back to God!’”  If we don’t embrace this task of reconciling people to God, who will?  Don’t miss your opportunity to be an ambassador for Christ.

Author’s comments:  You never know whose life you’ll touch.  You never know whose lives you’ll help change.  Attached to God’s gift of reconciliation is the responsibility of reconciling people to Him.  If you’re willing, God will use you!
