This week was rather stressful and I craved all week to rest. Yet, forever reason, God did not give me the rest I required. This isnt really part of the story, I just thought I'd add it in.
All week I've been plagued by this ponderment of how to approach people withthe gospel. I had a rather interesting meeting with Bryan, and without revealling to much, he reminded me how sometimes when we evanglize there is something inside us that pulls us backwards. Why when we try to spread the word, the words gets caught in our throat, and for some reason they sound wrong when we play them in our head.
It made me wonder why, what was causing this disunity in me?
As I took a stock of everythign over the last week, I really got an understanding of depth of sin still in me. I quietly prayed and asked God to reveal it more and more to me and that I would have the power to change. How this disunity in me the "war in my soul" as Paul would put it. Really affects so much in my life.
Towards the 2nd part. About how to Evanglize...I looked to Paul before Agrippa in Acts chp 25-26.I won't go into to much detail, but if you have time look at how Paul dictates to the High Roman Crowd. Most of which are officials and how he explains his circumstances and how such circumstances have changed his life. I think that's the key, we need to reveal teh truth about Christ and the changing power.
