Who's On Your Radar?

As Christians we are taught about spreading the word and the love of Jesus and our Lord. This task seems daunting, complicated, epic, and at least just a little scary! Ok let's be honest, really, really scary and very daunting.

Where do I start? What do I say? What if they blow me off? What if they attack me with things I can't answer? Lots of “what-if's” and a very scary endeavor to say the least. But we are still missing a very important step-- who!

Who are we suppose to spread the word to? Who!?

Now, we all can bet that, with our Christmas and Thanksgiving charity still fresh in our minds, the homeless and less fortunate are a great focus for starting this endeavor. Possibly, poverty stricken areas are the place the word needs to be spread the most. These are probably common ideas and places-- may be right or may be wrong. But are these our first choices of resources for spreading the joy of Christ? Are they first on the list? Perhaps the people closest to you are not in any need of your help discovering the word.

But, I ask, “Who is on your radar?” Who do you think needs your help the most?

Are the people you interact with everyday in need? When your radar goes off, who are the people that you’re overlooking that need help and comfort in the Lord the most? How many people do you talk to at work, grocery store, the mall, friends and family who are looking for help; who are desperate for an outlet to share and grow in their faith and to find comfort in the Lord?

I (CA) am a perfect example. Two years ago you wouldn't have even thought of trying to talk to me about faith or God or love; but with a small helping hand, BANG! Here I am! Actively taking part in my faith and expressing and learning and studying the word! So, I guess I’m asking, how many people do you walk by, talk to, share stuff with, or Facebook with who are a little lost or looking for a friend to step forth to the Lord and take away a little bit of the scary part, the fear?

This blog is our church. It’s our community to help and promote our faith and spirit with each other! This is a chance for us to write and share our faith and grow in spirit to know that we aren't alone and to take the scary part away! So I guess the question is, "WHO IS ON YOUR RADAR!?"
