WITNESSING WITH=OUR VERY LIVES!

 

WITNESSING WITH=OUR VERY LIVES!

 

WORDS can be

A very beautiful thing

 

They can LIFT us up=they

Can BUILD us up=they can

Move people

In a POSITIVE DIRECTION

 

But ACTIONS are even

More important=in letting

People KNOW=that we have

THE CHRISTIAN LOVE=for them

 

In both cases=

We need to WITNESS

To God and Jesus=

We need to let people KNOW

That God the Holy Father

And Jesus

 

Is the REASON we have

The POSITIVE DIFFERENCE

In our lives

 

WITNESSING WITH

OUR VERY LIVES=in thought=

In word=and IN OUR DEEDS

“Let us go with you=

For we have heard

That God is WITH YOU”                                                                                                  Zechariah 8:23

 

HOW BLESSED we are

To be=

In the company=of these

Holy ones=who WITNESS to God

And Christ=

With their very lives

 

How blessed we are

To be IN CONTACT

With the living SAINTS

Of this world

 

God is ALIVE and active

In our very lives=

We need to show it

We need to LIVE IT=

We need to=

Demonstrate it to all

 

BEING A WITNESS=

WITNESSING with our very lives!

 

“He himself

Was not the light=

 

He came only

AS A WITNESS=to the light”                                                                                               John 1:8

(John the Baptist for Jesus)

 

“One WITNESS=

Is not enough=to conclude

 

Anyone accused

Of any crime or offense=

They may have committed”                                                                                                Deuteronomy 19:15

 

“But you will receive power

When the Holy Spirit

Comes to you

 

And you will be

MY WITNESSES=in Jerusalem

And in all Judea=and Samaria

 

And to

The end of this earth”                                                                                                    Acts 1:8

 

YES that is right=

TWO WITNESSES are required

Our very own lives=and the HOLY SPIRIT

Living deep within our very selves

 

The Holy Spirit will lead us=

In the word=and in the acting

To be witnesses

To God and Christ

 

HOW BLESSED we are

When we ourselves

Are blessed=BY GOD’S GRACE

 

And living to be POWERFUL WITNESSES

To the Lord=when we WITNESS

To the Lord

WITH OUR VERY LIVES!

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our HOLY FATHER God=and their SPIRIT

LIVING WITHIN US!
