I’m not a very good judge of another person’s life but I’ve been to a few funerals that made the deceased person look like a real hero of the faith, which seemed contrary to what I had witnessed. On the other hand, if a person is really living for Christ, how can the hidden influence that person has had be adequately described in a short obituary. We live for Jesus, not the applause of our neighbors, church, or coworkers. Their approval is nice but not our motivation. This devotional is convicting that I need to be more assertive in sharing the gospel, not assume that others know what it’s all about.
