I was thinking about evangelism a while ago, and I realized something: besides my days as an unbeliever inside a church, nobody has ever attempted to witness to me in my life!
There has never been a time in my life when I have walked down the street, or been in the mall, or been hanging out in a park, and had someone try to talk to me about Christ.
I am positive that I do not have a halo over my head or a holy light emanating from my person, so I do not think that I "look" like a Christian during everyday life. I am sure that when I am witnessing to a stranger not every other Christian in my town sees it and makes a mental note of my face. So then, how can it be that I have never been handed a tract, stopped by a street evangelist, or had a knock on my door from a believer?
It makes me sad to think of all those who are unregenerate, those who will never darken the door of a church, walking around oblivious to the wrath they are storing up for themselves. Get out there and preach to the Lost. Oh, and if you get a huge grin and a hug when you are witnessing on the streets, that is just me, ecstatic that someone FINALLY got to me!
