Be Chick-fil-A to people.
You know what I'm talking about!
They don't care who is coming through their drive through, rich, poor, sinner, saint, just out of jail, addict, etc. They don't care where you've been, but they're going to do their best to make sure they serve you good food and give you their best possible service with a smile. They're going to show a little of Christ's love. They're gonna be Jesus with skin on, being kind and excellent to everyone they meet.
Sometimes we get these ideas and think that we can't spread the Word, evangelize, or make an impact for the Kingdom unless we are this super spiritual, organization starting, third world orphan feeding, school building, and saving hundreds on missions type person. That doubt is a lie from the enemy!
Look at Chick-fil-A employees, they're "just" serving fast food fried chicken, same as KFC, Raisen' Canes, Popeyes...yet they do so with a spirit of excellence and show the love of Jesus in their hearts.
And people remember that! Maybe that's the open door to softening their hearts to Christ. I've actually had people say, "well if ALL Christians were like that...or non-judgmental like that MAYBE I MIGHT believe."
It doesn't matter where you are today. Accountant, truck driver, sanitation, factory worker, Taco Bell...do your job with loving kindness and a spirit of excellence, plant those seeds of love and hope in everyone you meet.
Here are a few verses that reflect upon this:
Colossians 3:23 ESV
Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men
Titus 2:7 ESV
Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity,
2 Corinthians 8:7 ESV
But as you excel in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in our love for you—see that you excel in this act of grace also.
Ephesians 6:7-8 ESV
Rendering service with a good will as to the Lord and not to man, knowing that whatever good anyone does, this he will receive back from the Lord, whether he is a slave or free..

Where do you work, what can you do where you're at to spread Gods love?
I took a slight break in updating because I had six finals in the last week and needed to focus.
I've got several chapters lined up that I will post over this month while I'm on break!
