Last night was very interesting at our dinner table....I was lead to have our 4 children complete a questionaire abour their friends. My questions were these:
1. List three of your dearest friends?
2. On a scale of 1-5, 5 being the dearest, rank these friends.
3. Do you know if they believe in Jesus Christ?
4. What was your ranking again?
I was a bit surprised with the answers, but then I had to realize, they, too are babes in Christ.
Now, we adults, I wonder what our list would look like and how many ? marks we would place by those names.
What would happen if we had peace of their salvation and we gave each listed friend the same questionaire.
I took this idea from the movie " Pay It Foward", but plan to use it to further His Kingdom.
What if every youth pastor had his/her students complete these questions? What if the Pastor of every church had his congregation complete these questions? What if all parents had their children complete these questions?
Mark 9:50
Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
Colossians 4:6
Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man
