Witnessing

2 Tim. 1: 3-14 These scriptures are about witnessing. They tell us God gives us the spirit of power, love, self-discipline to witness.



While on the cruise ship we were at the rail whale watching. The lady next to me and I started visiting. she was from New York, NY. she told me in November she would be taking a trip to Egypt and was nervous about going. I told her that my brother had made the trip recently and was so excited to find Egypt is now over 30% Christian. She looked at me and said, I am a Jew.



Now I had two choices: Be ashamed or not ashamed. I silently prayed asking God to help me know what to say. I simply said, "You can be sure that at least 30% of the people truly believed in God". She smiled at me and we continued visiting.



I believe God gave me an opportunity to plant a seed of Christ in my conversation with this new friend.
