Living in Sodom ...

Pastor VanDelinder has been preaching through Genesis, Mike just started a series Wednesday nights on Jonah, and the Lord has been teaching me so many things . . . This recently brought me to think about my impact on those around me . . . most of my time is spent with saved people but regardless . . . are there "10 righteous" (in my neighborhood, community) because of my influence and testimony in their life. I'm thankful to say I don't believe they would laugh or think I was joking but still for so long I have been primarily concerned about my walk with the Lord. I confront and talk about the Lord but if they don't seem to listen the first time I think that is between them and the Lord, and it is in a way, but I do believe the Lord wants me to have an active, concerned part in helping those around me get to know the Lord, grow in the Lord, and stay away from sin. I hope these thoughts have made sense and it will challenge you to be a witness and godly influence wherever the Lord has you. I wonder have we done our best for Jesus?
