I'll Run to You

So I'm being pretty corny today and I am trying to study because I have been studying non stop for three days and I can't take any more. I decided to watch a litttle tv and I came to this channel that is showing The Gospels of John. Yes it is one of those old movies that they used to make about the books of the bible, but I was intrigued, so I decided to watch. So far, so good...I'm not sure how it's going to end though... =)
Anywho, as I was watching it and seeing how they were portraying John the baptist, I was like, man this is going to be a horribly cheesy movie. But then Jesus showed up on the scene and they portrayed him the way I always think of him. He was smiley, and happy and all together pleasant. He was passionate and wise, but not irrogant. I loved it.
Then they showed him meet his first disciple and this is the part that really got me. Now we all know the verse in John, "Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus. The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, 'We have found the Messiah'." So what did they show, Andrew high tailing it across the beach to tell his brother of Christ. And it made me think, here I have this love and this knowledge, but I know so many people that don't know Christ. What keeps me from running to them and telling them "I know what can save you, I know what can make you live!" I think it's shyness or probably insecurities that I don't know it all. I don't know but it does not really matter, it does matter that I'm not doing what I need to do. I saw how excited Andrew was, his face was lite up and his brother was reluctant to follow him, but he was so excited. Jesus says, "My father is always at work, so I too must continue to work." I'm going to take this to heart, I want my friends to know, I want them to understand. I want my family to know, I want everyone to know. So I'm going to not only show it in my life, but I'm going to speak of him non stop. Don't let me be a pharisee who says I believe and be reluctant to follow Christ as he commands me.
My prayer to Christ is to have the strength to stand for what I believe and to know that my praise does not come from men but God alone. If 12 men could impact a world, just think what we could do. So where will we get enough food to fill all these people? How about from the love of Christ.
