God has called us to be His witness'.
Just how does that work?
Most people are opposed to having their faults pointed out.
I saw a sign on a church reader board: God needs more witness's less judges.
Since I watch crime shows on TV, I am almost an expert on what a witness can and should say. I have also been on jury duty a couple of times -- so, I know what I'm talking about...
A witness: tells what he/she saw or heard. First hand information!
A witness: answers the question that is asked. They don't volunteer additional feelings or thoughts or words. Answer only the question?
A witness: tells the truth. They do not make things up. Lie or embellish. Truth and only the truth.
If I am to be a witness for God, I need to live a life, so others will ask the right questions. I need to listen to the question AND answer the question. With my experience. And tell the truth.
To do this, I need to know 'the truth' and trust God to take it from there.
I am 'the witness'.
God is the 'judge' not me.
But, it needs to be personal. My words. My story. What I have seen. What I have heard. What I have experienced.
Jesus Christ...God's son... My Savior...
