Summary: I’ve heard so many people talk about reaching their world as though it’s the hardest thing around. They’ve made it sort of a check box at the bottom of their spiritual to-do list. They want to obey God so they try to reach their world, but they don’t really want to. And what a sad thing that is! Reaching your world is the greatest blessing. God allows us to be part of changing lives for all of eternity. I still remember the first time I led someone to the Lord. It was a woman at a Saturday-night home Bible study. The teacher didn’t show up so the host said, “Luis, you take it.” I had not prepared. So I read the Beatitudes and then made some comments. When I got to the verse that says, “Blessed are the put in heart for they shall see God,” a woman interrupted and said, “Please, somebody help me. I don’t have a clean heart. I’m going to hell. Somebody please help me.” So we stopped the Bible study, we prayed with her, and she was the first woman I ever led to the feet of Jesus Christ. I can never forget it. I pray that you also would realize the deep, fulfilling joy in sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ. You don’t want to miss out on the God-given thrill of reaching your world.
