Reaching the lost Or choosing silence?

Matthew 9:37-38 “Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”

I read this blog where the writer stated:  

that only one out of every ten believers have lead someone to Christ and that about 90% keep their faith to themselves.   

Wow that is a scary stastic (I have not researched that to know if fact or not).  But to think of it I can’t say that I have knowledge of leading anyone to Christ. Why do I feel the need to be silent and not spread the word?  Oh yeah because I have fallen into the I don’t want to debate or listen to negativity.  Well Jocelyn that comes with the territory and how am I going to spread God’s good word if I sit by and be silent?  The answer don’t be silent.  I am starting a series with my women’s group called Becoming a Contagious Christian and it couldn’t have come at a better time.  With the wonderful women who are doing this series with me together I am hoping we learn how to cheer each other on and not just sit around and be spectators any longer.  I am going to try my hardest to not fall into the silliness of the world.  I am not perfect and I may fall down but I cannot be an ambassador of God if I don’t speak about him.  If I choose to go back to facebook, twitter or any other social media it will be to post of spread the word of God.  So if you are reading this I hope you enjoy my rants there may be more than one a day and if you talk to me know that every morning I pray and ask God to speak through me and I will be happy to discuss him if you want to have meaningful conversations.  

Have a great day of many blessings
Jocelyn
