TELL IT!

TELL IT!

READ:  Mark 5:1-20

The man went away and began
to tell…how much Jesus had
done for him.  -  Mark 5:20

The year was 1975 and something significant  had just happened to me.  I needed to find my friend Francis, with whom I shared a lot of personal matters, and tell him about it.  I found him in his apartment hurriedly preparing to go out, but I slowed him down.  The way he stared at me, he must have sensed that I had something important to tell him.  “What is it?” he asked.  So I told him simply, “Yesterday I surrendered my life to Jesus!”

Francis looked at me, sighed heavily, and said, “I’ve felt like doing the same for a long time now.”  He asked me to share what happened, and I told him how the previous day someone had explained the gospel to me and how I asked Jesus to come into my life.  I still remember the tears in his eyes as he too prayed to receive Jesus’s forgiveness.  No longer in a hurry, he and I talked and talked about our new relationship with Christ.

After Jesus healed the man with an evil spirit, He told him, “Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you” (Mark 5:19).  The man didn’t need to preach a powerful sermon; he simply needed to share his story.

No matter what our conversion experience is, we can do what that man did:  “[He] went away and began to tell…how much Jesus had done for him.”

What has Jesus done for you?  Tell it!

Share your story on

Let the redeemed of the LORD tell their story.  Psalm 107:2

Have a bless night.
God Our Creator’s Love Always.
Unity & Peace
