Show Up Before You Speak Up

July 9, 2010

There was a time when a certain West Coast city may have been one of the most hostile places to the gospel in America. Posters in coffee shops advertised witchcraft meetings where you could learn to cast a spell on your enemies.

It was such a challenging environment for churches that they struggled to get building permits from the city council. And there was a lot of “woe is me” talk among church leaders. Until a group of pastors began to meet to pray regularly and then decided to take the love of Jesus into their city. They started a ministry to the homeless, to those suffering with AIDS, to teens at risk. Faithfully and intentionally they brought the love of Jesus to the needs of hurting people. Before long, the city agencies started calling on them for help. Better yet, the churches started growing as people responded to the gospel in action.

Which proves the point: Sometimes you’ve got to “show up” before you speak up. No one really wants to hear what we have to say about the love of Jesus until they’ve seen it in our lives (Matt. 5:16). Then even the most ardent opponents to the gospel may just be glad you’re in their town, their office, or their neighborhood. And then you just might be able to tell them about Jesus.

Let us go forth, as called of God,
Redeemed by Jesus’ precious blood;
His love to show, His life to live,
His message speak, His mercy give. —Whittle

When you share the gospel, make sure you live the gospel.

Read: Matthew 5:11-16

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father. —Matthew 5:16

Bible in a year:
Job 38–40 & Acts 16:1-21

Happy Friday y’all!

[beachn4fun]

Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities. Just love seeing our heroes at work. May God bless them and protect them while they do it.

The DC Metroland weather report

~ Today...Scattered clouds with the possibility of an isolated thunderstorm developing this afternoon. High 91F. Winds ESE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 30%.

~ Tonight...Variable clouds with scattered showers and thunderstorms, mainly late. Humid. Low 73F. Winds S at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 50%.

Sure has been a strange weather pattern over the east coast. Even now we have a system moving in from the west which will converge with the system moving off the Atlantic and heading west. They are suppose to collide over the DC Metro area this weekend.

At least it appears the 100+ temps are gone. We'll be back in the 90s for the next 10 days.

Time for me to make my rounds. But, you stay right where you are. Don't touch that dial. Don't change that channel. Put down that remote. Don't leave the room. Keep your eyes on your monitor. Cause...............I'll be bock!

Now remember, the Canteen is ALWAYS

Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM
