Witnessing

Being the Salt of the Earth
Matthew 5:13-20

“You are the salt of the earth; but if salt has lost its taste, how can its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything, but is thrown out and trampled under foot.

“You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid. No one after lighting a lamp puts it under the bushel basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.


I have found that God has placed me in a very unique place in my life. My life is at it's best, and I am so thankful and grateful to God for all that I have been carried through. If I can be a source of light for a few other women that are experiencing some of the things that God has brought me through, then I pray and ask God for His blessings so that I may be ever faithful to His wishes and His will.

Lord, I pray and ask that your light shine through me, that I may be a witness to Your ever loving Grace, Love and Power.

“Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing” (1:2-4NASB


I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
Philippians 4:13


Christian Witnessing - We're Merely Called to Share

Christian witnessing is merely sharing our heartfelt faith in Christ - what He's personally done to change our individual lives! We're not called to argue or debate anyone into heaven. We're merely called to share! As in the courtroom, we're called to be a witness for the Gospel, not the lawyer, judge or jury… Leave that up to God!


I praise you Lord, for my trials and tribulations, for they have made me stronger.

You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

Ephesians 4:22-24 (New International Version)
