Today's Passage: 2 Kings 7-8
In chapter 7, we read about the two lepers that were desperate. They believed they were destined to die very soon. If they stayed at the gate, they would die. If they went into the city during this immense famine, they would die. If they ventured into the camp of the enemy, they would die. What to do?? So they decided to go in the camp! Why not have some adventure! But what do they find? A camp full of food and supplies and NO PEOPLE! How strange! It is completely obvious that God spared them. They thought about hiding it, but the did not. They went to the city and shared the good new with the king. Why not share this great news of food with the other starving people in their city? They did not even wait for day, but instead they went during the night.
Are we like this? Do we see the miracle of God sparing US? Do we fully comprehend how God has chosen to give us everlasting life? Why would we not share this with others? After the initial excitement, the lepers ran to share the good news. I think we should remember to share the Good News of Jesus with those around us. Do we really understand that they are dying without it? At Rooted, on Wednesday nights, we are discussing evangelism. If you are unsure how to share your faith, please join us to learn how! Join me in praying this week for opportunities to share God's love with others!
