What Do Others See in You?

“Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, ‘Men and brethren, what shall we do?’ Then Peter said to them, ‘Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.’”

PONDER THIS

On the Day of Pentecost, there was a great crowd, and the power of God came in such a way that day that the crowds were amazed. People couldn’t even explain what they saw. They asked one question, “Whatever could this mean?” (see Acts 2:12). And then they asked another question: “What must we do?”

Many of us have been trying to get nonbelievers to ask the second question before they ask the first question: What have they seen about us that they can’t explain? What do they know about us that is different from anybody else on our block? What do they see about us—in the office, in the school, at home, or wherever we are—that they can’t explain? When they start looking at our lives, see the power of God, and start asking what it means, maybe before long they’ll be asking what they must do.

As Christians we are called to be salt and light. The way we love others and treat others should point to Christ. The way we pursue our dreams should point to Christ. The way we solve our problems should point to Christ. Then, they will ask what is different about us, and before long, hopefully, they’ll be asking how they can become different too.

  • What are some of the ways you live that are different from the people around you because you have Christ?
  • Why do you think we tend to tell people what to do before we have shown them how our faith is different?

PRACTICE THIS

Pray for the nonbelievers you know and ask God to help you live out your faith as a witness to them.
