Kinda Neat

So I got on the computer this morning, and the Firefox homepage was staring me in the face.  It was a friendly stare, sure, but a stare nonetheless, one that said: "Watch this video."  So I did.


It's a pretty video, is it not?  It has a sort of wistful quality that I like.  But the thing that most intrigued me about it was the fact that it started with a grey, joyless man and added colour to his life.  A message of hope?  Very interesting for this to be a part of an ad campaign...

Take a moment to think about the power of the hope of the Gospel in your life, and then think about how you would feel without that hope...  Does it not make you pause?  You don't have to be an evangelist to tell people about Jesus.  You don't have to be well-versed in Scripture, or an excellent speaker.  You just need to be passionate about your faith and have a real desire to keep those you love from a life without hope.

That's my challenge to you.  Be bold.  If you are met with disdain, get back up and try again.  Be winsome.  Don't get heated.  Be real with who you are.  Try it!  You might find you actually enjoy it.
