Give Me A Sign

Most everyone's heard the saying, "If God would just give me a sign or something, I would believe." Romans 1 says that God has already given us a "sign"...we just have to look at the world all around us. Romans 1:18-23 says:

"For God's wrath is revealed from heaven against all godlessness and unrighteousness of people who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth, since what can be known about God is evident among them, because God has shown it to them. From the creation of the world His invisible attributes, that is, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what He has made. As a result, people are without excuse. For though they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God or show gratitude. Instead, their thinking became nonsense, and their senseless minds were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man, birds, four-footed animals, and reptiles."

This afternoon, I went down to Riverview Park to do some filming for my television show and ended up sharing the Gospel with two people I had never met before. We talked for about twenty minutes and had a great witnessing conversation.

I think the most interesting part of my conversation with Mike and Carolyn was what they said at the end. I asked them what they thought about our conversation. Mike responded that he thought that I was there as a sign from God and that this was a sort of "wake-up call" from God. You don't hear that very often when sharing the Gospel!!
