I came to a realization that I was not placed in the new location for no reason. It became obvious to me that I was placed there to be a witness of Christ to the people I work with. It may be through hard work that stems from reverence and the knowledge that I ought to work as though to the Lord, but also to speak words of wisdom and encouragement and eventually tell them about the gospel of our Lord.
Evangelizing is most of the time scary to me because I fear rejection and ridicule. But I pray daily that the Lord grant me the courage and the opportunities to have moments of "intimacy" with the people I work with to witness to them.
Some time ago my boss was eating in our break table and called me. She said she had to tell me that there has been some kind of "cleansing" going on in the store since I came. She didnt know if it was because of my music (which everyone who goes to the backroom has no choice but to hear), but she told me, it has never been this "good" here until I came. She continued to tell me that I was an asset to them and she had to let me know that.
I have yet to actually share the gospel. But I do believe that the door has been opened.
Pls pray for me, that the Lord will give me the boldness to tell them the truth asbout their salvation for it has been impressed upon my heart so strongly.
May the Lord be glorified!
