Open Their Eyes

"Open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in Me." Acts 26:18

Nobody wants to be offensive. We are taught from an early age to be kind and respectful and considerate of the feelings of others. It is right and good that we are mindful of the Lord's admonition that we love others and treat them as we would ourselves like to be treated.

That does not, however, mean that we should not reveal truth to them. Rather, it means that we must hone our communication skills so we will be able to deliver life's only eternal message in a way that is not only kind but life-changing.

May the Lord help us to be available to Him and to His purposes, for He is certainly able to compel our hearts to speak for Him and to loosen our tongues to convey His heart.
