Tuesday morning thoughts

28 We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ. 29 To this end I labor, struggling with all his energy, which so powerfully works in me.---Colossians 1
How do you make people come to Christ and obey Him?
You can't and you don't humanly speaking. You do what you can: you pray hard, you go, you proclaim the Gospel, you teach, you live it, you love people, you represent Christ and then you repeat. Paul calls it his labor. It can be cumbersome and will most certainly be unappreciated by men, but you are here to please God. It takes much resolve and perseverance, that is why so many people quit. You can't be a quitter. Done right it can be exhausting, but refreshing at the same time. IT has eternal results and rewards. IT is what you were designed to do.
