Reaching Your World with Luis Palau

Taking Advantage of the Now


Listen Later

A girl who works for our team is an amazing inspiration when it comes to reaching the world with the Good News of Jesus. Before joining our team, she spent several months working at a coffee shop. She could have easily just gone to work and put in her time, as she was in transition, looking for that new, next opportunity for work and ministry in her life.  But she didn’t.  She took full advantage of where God had her at that moment, for that season of her life.
Here’s what God led her to.  She listed all of her co-workers on a prayer sheet and made a commitment to look for open doors for a spiritual conversation as a beginning to share the Good News.  Bold plan!  And she’ll confess she was scared about it.  But one of her co-workers she was able to share the Good News with was only 19, and the initial response was, “Nobody has ever talked to me about this before.”  Her co-worker was so appreciative that someone cared enough to share and she was full of so many questions.
What a good example for all of us.  Are you in transition?  My friend was in between jobs.  But for her it was not just a bump in the road.  Even then, it was not about her.  She knew that God had her there for a reason, and that her co-worker’s souls were beautiful in God’s eyes.  Do you have that same sense of others focus?  Even in less than ideal circumstances?  Paul in 2 Corinthians says that because of the hope we have, “we are very bold.”  You are full of hope because you have Jesus!  Now be bold.  Reach your world!
