Witness

You never know where those tracts or CDs will end up. We received this testimony from a sister who did her best to make the Message available to everyone around her. After what seemed to be failures, she finally saw that her efforts did not go unnoticed.

I enjoyed the testimonies. When I was single, I used to babysit for church nurseries. I sometimes put Message books in their bookstands of free material for church members. I have no idea what became of the material, but I later met a sister who told me that her husband received the Message first, and then she found a Message book in the church library. My sister offered a tract to a girl who said she'd already been given that very tract at the Catholic Church (a tapeboy must have slipped in there).

I just learned tonight that a girl I used to babysit, and whose family I'd given books and tapes, was at the Message church my family attends and heard a tape played. Sometimes I get discouraged and don't feel like witnessing because I feel like I always fail, but at times like this I realize that it's up to God to bring the Word to life and we need to present It.
