the comfort box needs to be crushed

Tonight I went to this really awesome bible study with people from school. We talked a lot about stepping outside of our comfort boxes- I know I need to do that and make more of an effort to witness. One of the main things that sticks out from tonight is: one of the guys said that there are 3 respnses someone can have when you talk to them about God: accept him, reject him, or brush it off. There is a 33.3% chance each of those things will happen, but they should all be worth it for you to tell them. 1-If they believe and want to accept what you saying about God- tahts incredible! Now they have an eternity in heaven. 2-If they reject him, oh well, you've planted a seed and you will still be going to heaven. The fear of rejection is no reason to keep from telling someone about God's love. YOU'VE GOT NOTHING TO LOSE. 3- They brush it off. That means it is still open for discussion unless GOd closes it. So in conclusion, all three of these are gaurunteed 100%. God will give you the strength and wisdom when he leads you to tell someone about him. Just have faith. (I am preaching to myself also).

John 1:5- "The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it."

God and I love you
