You could go on and on with the excuses, the reasons that people give for not witnessing. But the bottom Iine is that if we do not share our faith with other people, we simply lack the motivation that we ought to have. I am persuaded that witnessing and sharing your faith with another person ought to be the spontaneous result of being converted to Jesus Christ. When we really come to know him as Savior, something has happened inside of us that is worth sharing and we want other people to know about it. As we grow older in the Christian faith, our experience becomes more commonplace to us. We tend to lose some of that zeal and some of that early excitement. But I’m still convinced that if we really have an experience with Jesus Christ, there is down deep inside of every one of us a longing to share that experience with somebody else and we need simply the right kind of motivation.
