"Pray that I will proclaim the message as clearly as I should. Live wisely among those who are not believers, and make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you will have the right response for everyone." Colossians 4:4-6
Last week I had to go to the emergency room with kidney stones. When I walked in to the ER I was glad to see it was fairly quiet and not many people. I took a seat and waited my turn. As I was reading a book, a couple ladies came and sat down just a few seats away. It didn't take long to turn my rated G ER experience into a rated R one. The language these two women were using were sure signs they didn't have a relationship with Jesus. I know, I know, some of you are saying I shouldn't judge, and your right. But looking at their fruit, in this case, hearing it, was at least an indication their fruit was bad!
Ask yourself today if you have gracious and attractive conversation that would be an indication that your a follower of Christ? The first part of these verses talk about proclaiming a clear message. What kind of message will others say you proclaim?
