Sharings

Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him! (Psa 34:8)

Man has been created with an innate need for community. He was never designed to function completely as a solitary individual. Quite remarkably, it is also inbuilt in him the need to share!

We will observe as common incident, the propensity of sharing the latest and current bests ,concerning all manner of subjects; from the latest toys, the best places and foods to eat, the movies and songs to hear, the places to see and visit, and just about everything else under the sun. This sharing is usually most selective, when we will reserve the best for those we deem closest to us.

It does seem a contradiction therefore, that we do not exhibit the same enthusiasm when it comes to our personal enriched experiences with the LORD or with His gospel. Our “silence” in worship and thanksgiving is irreconcilable. Our inertia in heartily telling of the good news invites investigation. In the course of our daily lives, we are guilty of relegating and according Him only brief moments, when we inadvertently remember that He was always there. It is certainly good when our talk matches our walk. We confess that we know Him and His daily blessings, that He is good and faithful, that we hear His voice and follow Him. We call Him LORD.

May our lives and our voices be saturated with praise, thanksgiving and the blessing of sharing the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

God bless.
