Do you share what God has shown you?

1 John 1:1-4 NIV
 1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life.  

The Word of God always existed.  The Word of God came to Earth and the apostles saw Christ.  They touched Him.  1 John 1:14 NIV says "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us."

2 The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. 3 We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. 4 We write this to make our joy complete.

If the apostles had not shared their faith I would not be writing this blog today.  I would still be lost in my sin.  They testified so that I could have fellowship with them and with God.

vs 4 says they wrote it down to make their joy complete.  I know exactly how they felt.  I write this blog to share what Christ has shown me.  I only find fulfillment in my Christian walk when I am share what I have learned.

In this Christmas season, share you faith.  Don't waste the opportunity to ask someone "What does the birth of Jesus mean to you?"

God Bless
