The other day I was driving through town and, as I stopped at a red light, I heard a man shouting “Are you saved?” I looked to see a sixty or seventy-something man standing on the street corner, holding signs proclaiming Jesus as savior. He was parading up and down the sidewalk yelling praises at stopped cars.
I found myself with mixed emotions. Part of me felt I should be out there alongside of him. But another part of me wondered if such an undertaking really does any good. Is anybody really brought closer to Jesus? Or do people just laugh at his bold display?
Clearly, it doesn’t matter to him. He’s doing what he feels God is leading him to do. May it be so for all of us.
Amen
