Sometimes when we feel the Spirit prompting us to step out in faith and share the good news, we fear the risk involved. It’s at these times that we should trust that no one is alone in the work of evangelization. We are supported by all those who have gone before us and have stepped out of their comfort zones for the sake of telling other people about new life in Jesus.

As you encounter situations today that call for God’s presence, remember that God has sent you there and is calling you to sow seeds of encouragement, consolation, or peace. Don’t worry about making mistakes. God can take care of that. He has shown on many occasions that he can bless our imperfect efforts and produce wonderful results. We may not always gather the harvest of the seeds that we plant. Someone else may do that. But as members of the body of Christ, we can do our part to change the world.

What do you have to lose as a worker in the Lord’s field? He has already given you both the field and the seed. With just a little effort you will be able to share in the wonder of seeing the harvest of redeemed brothers and sisters growing in the love God has for them. All you really need is a humble and sincere heart. So what do you think? Can we all make a difference today?
