Word of Mouth

Don't ever underestimate your testimony and your opportunity.  God uses each one of us uniquely.  Sometimes we are just a small part of a process as God plants and cultivates in someone's life.  Sometimes we get the opportunity to see life change harvested.  Either way, do not underestimate your influence.  In John 4 Jesus spoke to the woman at the well.  He met her where she was and took her where she needed to go.  Her experience with Jesus changed here life, so she told others.
In John 4.28-29 it tells us what happened next- So the woman left her water jar and went away into town and said to the people, 29 “Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?” 30 They went out of the town and were coming to him.   Now this lady did not have the world's greatest reputation.  She was not perfect in any way.  Of course, we need to remember that she needed Jesus.  After she met Jesus, she told others about Him.   From her testimony they listened to Him for a couple of days.  A couple of days later they were saying, “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world.”(v.42)

Two things that you ought to never doubt:  The Power of Your Testimony and the Power of God at work around you.  Stake your life...and your day....upon those two thoughts and have a great one!
