I am the same as everyone else in that I have friends....some very good long-time friends....and many who I have just known for a lot of years....and even new friends....and many acquaintances....and relatives. What might be a little different is that although I might meet them....and the conversation might be perfectly normal....there is no time when somewhere at least in the back of my mind....and often right up front....is that ultimate eternal question....are they in Christ? Have they been born again....born anew....born from above. Have their eyes been opened to God's Word....as what it is....His very Word.....perfect and powerful....to save and to guide.....and to warn.....and to enthrall? 
                What am I missing here? Shouldn't this be the normal with every Christian? Granted....we have a lot of difficulties in this pilgrimage of life....and often we might be overwhelmed by all of our responsibilities....where it would be hard if not impossible to think of everyone that we meet....and wonder....or be concerned about their eternal well-being....but even if it is not until later that night....while in bed....thinking about the day that has just passed....would not these faces come back to us....and would we not wonder if God had given them the greatest of all gifts....salvation?
                 So there are regular readers to these posts that come in for various reasons. Some I'm sure totally reject everything that I write....certainly about Trump.....but they might come in just to stir up that anger or disgust. Some....friends and relatives....come in I'm sure just out of concern for me....not totally rejecting what they read....but also not really accepting any of it either. To these visitors....friends and relatives....know this....I never look into your eyes during a conversation....no matter how trivial that conversation might be....without silently pleading that God might open those eyes....as He did mine....and as He did for multitudes of others!
                 The topic of love might be the most preached on topic? What could possibly compare to having or showing love than wanting someone to receive the grace of God in salvation? You would have to agree with this....or it would show that you do not really believe that there is a heaven and that there is a hell. So....the first part of my concern is that you would know what comes after death....and then to take it an uncomfortable but necessary step further....you have parents still alive....or children....or a spouse....or other people who you truly do love....or do you truly love them....for if you did....and you understand the gospel that is referenced by the delicate gold cross that you wear....then you would never truly sleep well....or never really laugh without some uneasiness....unless that parent that you would do anything for....or that child that you would give your life for....or that spouse that you love more then anyone....was safe....and secure....in Christ!
                  I can prove that I believe what I write....for why else would I attempt such an odd post like this? For what other possible reason could I....year after year....even to the point of ridicule and rejection....plead with God for words to move even one soul....from ignorance....to a revelation that makes sense of everything....except one thing....that being why....why would such a Holy God....give such a wonderful gift....to one such as I....or you?
