Aargh, I was really craving for an internet connection last night but unfortunately there weren’t any. There was a limited or no connectivity on the internet line so I wasn’t able to connect. There was a wi-fi available but was too poor to be linked to. So, I just enjoyed the night through reading. :)
I just finished my third book for this summer (Xtreme Calling). The 2 books I’ve read was really amazing (Embraced by the cross and Do Hard things); it made me realize to take my up cross every single day and do things beyond what I can see. The third book I’ve read (Xtreme Calling) made me sensitive to the calling God has placed to my life. I was so inspired by the meaningful stories that were compiled by Kelly Carr in that book! (Thumbs up!) Now, I’m ready to be refreshed and equipped once again with the book I’m about to read. It is entitled, Permission Evangelism. :)
Evangelism isn’t important for a non-Christian, it is important for YOU. Sharing the gift of God’s love with someone else should be the most exciting and encouraging event in your life- every time it happens. Think of what you may be missing! Be selfish, be greedy, and be relentless with your desire to grow closer to God; but understand that the greatest intimacy with God’s heart is found in sharing his greatest passion.
If you desire to know God’s heart, you must become enraptured with His greatest passion. When you understand God’s heart and let it change you, you can learn to help others discover His grace. If all of heaven rejoices at the salvation of one soul, shouldn’t we want to join the party? :)
Evangelism isn’t a duty, it’s a BLESSING. It is an opportunity for you to grow closer to God and know His heart intimately. By learning to discern his working Spirit, you will unleash the power of his Spirit in your life. And it allows you to experience love and grace like nothing else you will never find in his life.
I’m so excited to read this book. I’m praying to God for a renewed passion for evangelism as I read this book. I just realized that Evangelism isn’t just a job for those who were called to Fulltime ministry but a calling for everybody. It’s a believer’s calling to share the gospel to a non-believer, it’s not just a rule to follow! :)
BEAUTIFUL!!!! :D You really have an evangelist's passion! Keep it up! I've met a lot of evangelist and their heart is to introduce God to His lost sheep not because it's required but because they're sooooo in love with Him that they want to lead God's sheeps back to Him because, just as He died for us, He died for them too! :)
