SCRIPTURE: Colossians (NIV) 4:5 Be wise in the way you act towards outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. 6 Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.
OBSERVATION: These two verses give direction for interacting with unbelievers.
APPLICATION: It would be good for me to read these verses every time I go to school, or to work, or to the market—every time I will be in a place where I will meet unbelievers.
I should read them especially before attending a family reunion, or a wedding, or a funeral—wherever I will be meeting unsaved relatives.
Making the most of every opportunity will require something of me.
PRAYER: Lord, this may speak to many SOAP readers, but I know for sure this is for me. Holy Spirit, keep these verses fresh in my thoughts. Whenever I meet a stranger, I want to be open to whatever thought you may bring to my heart. Lord, use me for your glory! Amen
