When YOU share The Gospel, YOU may not fully understand all the lives YOU touch. People who are in the general area, whom YOU were not speaking directly to, are but one example. Have YOU ever thought about the “ripple effect” (as in a pebble tossed into a body of water)? The ripples from the water, touch every piece of shoreline, right? Why do YOU think Social Media websites flourish, because of the “ripple effect”. Because, YOU join, YOU tell your friends to join, they tell their friends to join, and soon YOU have a flourishing Social Media Website. Cell phone companies do it and Internet Websites depend on it. So, what does the “ripple effect” have to do, with sharing The Gospel, YOU ask? By sharing The Gospel, even with just one person, it begins (YOU tossed the pebble into the water). They may tell five friends or family members, how He has changed their Life, and let’s say one of the five, accept God’s Free Gift of Salvation, and He changes their Life. That’s how The Gospel spreads, and continues to touch lives. Sharing The Gospel, God’s Amazing Saving Grace, God’s Free Gift of Salvation, with just one person, can make a World of difference. It’s also a command, from The Lord Jesus Christ Himself, to go and make Disciples, Baptizing them, in the name of The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit/Ghost. When YOU share The Gospel, and how accepting Jesus Christ, as your personal Lord and Savior, has changed your Life, changing YOU, from the inside out, YOU are giving that person the opportunity to learn about God and His Only Son, Jesus Christ. Now, sometimes that person may accept His Invitation, and accept His Free Gift of Salvation, but sadly many times they will not. But YOU have “planted The Seed”, and in the future they may accept Jesus Christ. When that person does accept Jesus Christ, that’s often called, “reaping The Harvest”, i.e. someone else “planted The Seed”, and the person with them now, witnesses that individual, accept Jesus Christ. In sharing The Gospel, YOU may be the person, who “reaps The Harvest”, but know that someone else “planted that Seed”. Also, in sharing The Gospel, YOU may nurture a fellow Believer, to yearn to learn and do more. YOU may even ignite or reignite, a fellow Believer, to explore his/her potential, to use his/her Spiritual Gift(s) to share The Gospel themselves. Again, YOU may not witness, be around, when these things happen or occur, but YOU did have a hand, in its outcome. One day, when We stand before Jesus Christ, He will surely show Us, the lives We touched, that We didn’t even know about. Now, sometimes, years later, YOU may be told about a Life, YOU helped change, simply by sharing what The Lord Jesus Christ, means to YOU, and how He has changed your Life. It will truly warm your heart, and bring tears to your eyes, when YOU learn, how YOU helped to change a person’s Life. Yes, I know, it was actually The Lord Jesus Christ, and God Almighty, who truly changed their Life, but YOU did have a hand in it. Rejoice in this knowledge, give God The Glory, for the things He does through YOU and for YOU. Be a Blessing to others, Love one another, share The Gospel, God’s Amazing Saving Grace, God’s Free Gift of Salvation. YOU just never know, all the lives YOU will touch.
