I pray that you may be active in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ. Philemon 6 NIV
Did you know that my brother once travelled literally around the world? Or that my sister was a wonderful decorator? Had you heard that I have two terrific boys? You would have heard these facts and many more if you knew my mother for very long. She's a proud mother, and if you really want to get her excited, let her talk about her kids!
It used to be a standing joke in our family, but now, as a father myself, I feel the same way. Get me started about my boys, and we could be talking for a while. It seems I really begin to appreciate them even more when I get to talk about them.
That is the way it is with your faith as well. Jesus really has done a lot for you if you are a Christian. He has been there for you, even when it didn't feel like He was. He is working all things out for your eventual good. One day, He is going to take you to Heaven to live with Him there. He has a wonderful eternity planned for you!
You probably won't really appreciate all He has done for you until you start to tell others. That is why Paul encouraged Philemon to share his faith. He knew that as Philemon began to tell others about Christ, that Philemon would love Christ even more. You can't talk about Him and not get excited!
Do you need a fresh touch on your faith? Are you looking to build your excitement about Jesus? Would you like more joy in your Christian life? Then start telling people the Good News! Start spreading the Gospel! Take the pictures out of your wallet and start sharing from your heart about the love of your Savior!
Your life will be changed, and those around you will appreciate what you have to say!

I may not see in front of me, But I can see for miles around when I look over my shoulder, and Lord, it`s clear. You`ve brought me here, So faithful every step of the way. What can I do but follow you, For You are the Way, the Truth, the Life, And You`ve promised never to leave me, My Savior, my friend, From beginning to end.
