street preacher

In response to Sunday's post, my friend Pat wrote in...

My wife and I walked home across the Plaza last night from dinner in Westport. There was a fellow with a similar shirt, standing on a small box with a portable megaphone and a bible shouting at the world going by about sinners, and salvation and Jesus. Mostly everyone who had to stop at the light was anxious for the light to change so they could get away from the din. Sort of like being stopped at a light next to a car with loud music going.

Shouting salvation never saved anyone, nor did it draw anyone near. The quiet voices draw our attention. And our actions do the most convincing.

It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
