Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
Is this the most wonderful time of the year or does the holiday season produce anxiety for you? Now, I know that December can bring both feelings of wonder and hope as well as dread and anxiety. Oftentimes, family gatherings can cause stress. But you know what? We have a joy greater than any season of life! We have the Living Savior who draws us near to Him. So think about eternity – is there a family member you’ll see that needs Jesus? Well, pray fervently for this person before you see them and let them see the joy that you have in Christ. Ask God for an opportunity to share what the Christmas season is really about – His grace! The Holy Spirit is in the business of saving people. So let’s make ourselves available vessels for Him to use. Don’t be scared to share the love of Jesus. Cast your anxieties on Him because He cares for you—and the person you’re praying for!
