Here comes 1st Corinthians 9:22a "to the weak I became as weak, that I might win the weak."
What are we willing to sacrifice for the furtherance of the gospel? Am I, I should ask, willing to be all things to all men that I may win some to Christ. I would hope so. However, I must consider what it means to be all things to all men. I don't have to be a drug addict to reach them. I should share my testimony with them, of how God took me from my own personal addiction and set me apart from that for His glory. How He can do that for them as well. To reach people, I must be willing to be seen as weak and not having power in myself to save myself. I must give all the glory to God and through my life show what God has done and is able to do. For it is truth that apart from God I wouldn't be where I am. God saved me, I am here because of Him. No matter how I may look to others, if I look spiritual, it's because of what Jesus Has done in my life and not of what I've done. I cannot emphasize this enough that ALL the GOOD in my LIFE is FROM GOD! I have no reason to boast about myself. I pray that I never lose sight of that.
Praise be to God for His goodness.
