"When Jesus was in Bethany reclining at table in the house of Simon the leper, a woman came in with an alabaster jar of very costly ointment, made of pure nard.

She broke open the jar and poured the ointment over his head."

Mark 14:3

Romans 15:13

“Preach the Gospel at all times, and when necessary, use words,” the famous quote goes.

Some Christians believe it’s enough to just let others see the way we live.

I beg to differ because it contradicts the Great Commission. Jesus said, "Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone." Mark 16:15 In order to preach, we definitely need words.

Some people think that our behaviour and deeds should draw people to Christ. It may or may not, because I have seen good people in every faith, who are loving, caring and generous. But as you know, that is not going to take them to heaven. They too need to hear the gospel. They too need to call upon the name of Jesus, in order to be saved.

How, then, can they call on the One they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the One of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? – Romans 10:14

May the Lord give us boldness and courage to share the gospel to those around us and may our actions substantiate our message.

'A Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.” (His disciples had gone to the city to buy food.) The Samaritan woman said to him, “How is it that you, a Jew, ask a drink of me, a woman of Samaria?” (Jews do not share things in common with Samaritans.)'

on Corinthians 13:4-8

 "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails."

Now read it again with "God" instead of "love."

 "God is patient, God is kind. He does not envy, He does not boast, He is not proud. He does not dishonor others, He is not self-seeking, He is not easily angered, He keeps no record of wrongs. God does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. He always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

God never fails."

Now read it once more from your name, this is how God sees you, this is how he calls you to serve him, who he is calling you to be.

"(your name) is patient, (your name) is kind. (your name) does not envy, (your name) does not boast, (your name) is not proud. (your name) does not dishonor others, (your name) is not self-seeking,(your name) is not easily angered, (your name) keeps no record of wrongs. (your name) does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. (your name) always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

God never fails, and he didn't when he made you. You are beautiful, you are loved, you are exactly who you are supposed to be.
