The constant goal of my ministry is to show others the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I can only do this by living the Word of God and being a conduit of His Grace to other people. I am a unique person and my life experience has made me accessible to other individuals because of the differences we share, respect (or in some cases) just don’t understand, yet. There is someone “out there” who only I will reach because they will be ready, willing and able to accept the truth from me at some time.
For example, I am a walking, talking man of faith. Long after it is obvious to the world that I am not going to be successful, I continue on working to make my God-centered dreams become tangible reality. Because of this gift of “stick to it-iveness” I can talk with authority on perseverance. When someone tells me they are tired and want to give up I can say (something like), “I know, I’ve been there, keep working at it, but maybe chose a different angle of attack, you will continue to as long as you persist.” The demonstration of biblical principles in my life is attractive to certain people who will then be encouraged to investigate the source of my strength.
