"So they took away the stone. Then Jesus looked up and said, "Father, I thank you that you have heard me. I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me."
John 11:41-42
Is it not amazing that Jesus had to thank His Father, God in front of the Jews at Lazarus' grave so that they would believe He was sent by God? How then, if these men witnessed Jesus bringing Lazarus back from the dead, can we be amazed when non-believers do not believe?
The Holy Spirit must touch our hearts and souls and grant us the gift of faith. But the Holy Spirit can only work through the Word of God. So we must whenever possible share the Word of God with those unbelievers. Share first in your acts of kindness out of the love of God. Then share what you know. Share your favorite verse. Make your favorite verse one that speaks the true love and promise of God.
Pray that others that have not been touched by the Holy Spirit will be. Pray that your actions and words will help to convey the love of our God.
God Bless you.
