Yesterday was a routine day. I went to a local store to buy weed killer and talked to two people - one who helped me find the week killer and the clerk who checked me out. There were other guests in the store, but I did not really pay attention to them.
Mary and I walked in the neighborhood and waved to a couple of people we did not know. We did not stop to talk to any of them.
At Read and Feed, I welcomed parents and students as they arrived. "Welcome and come on in." I spoke to most of the other volunteers.
We ate dinner at a small fast food place. I spoke to one person who took my food order and nodded to several other customers who were also in the restaurant.
So during the day, I probably saw a total of 50 people.
The Bible says that I am to be in the world and not of the world. It also says that I am to be prepared to give a witness for the hope that is within me.
My question: Could there have been someone within the 50 people that I should have spoken to? Was I not intentional enough to hear the Holy Spirit speak in a still quiet voice? What does it mean to live intentionally in today's world,
..........just thinking.
