Get Out and Mix

Many of us Christians live with an underlying sense of responsibility to "recruit for Christ".
Such an obligation is something different than what Christ calls us to. We are being formed into the radiance of Christ, into his image, as children of God. As we conduct our lives in the world the Family resemblance is manifested in the way we work, play, relate to others, in the things we make and say, in the conversations we have and the care we give. Sometimes we are verbally specific about the truth of Christ, but always we are "little Christs" (the meaning of "Christian"), the presence of Christ which is redemptive wherever we go.
A major delay in the world coming to God is that many of the little Christs, don't get out much, feeling more comfortable keeping to themselves and their regular routines. But God has put a light in us which yearns to radiate; not to promote, or sell itself, but to simply be its beautiful self and, in so being, to beautify those around it by its radiance.
This is why Christ said, "Let your light so shine before people so that they will see your good works and praise (worship) the Father in heaven." Matthew 5:16
