I can remember reading Chick tracts when I was just a young girl in the 60s.

I still remember to this day, the first one I ever read. It was the "This Was Your Life"

That one puts the fear of God into you, it scared the dickens out of me. You cannot read that tract and not believe in Hell.

There was another one where a young lady tried witnessing to her Dad. It went something like, "I'll wait till later, I have all the time in the world to get saved, I have my life to live". And the Dad has a heart attack that night and dies. He dies and goes to Hell. It was so creepy and tragically sad.

I think of those tracts when I start to witness to people. It gives me a boost to be bold. I am so terrified I would not speak to someone and they die.

It reminds me of an account Charles Stanley told during one sermon.

He was preaching, obviously, and he was talking about life being so short, so fleeting. He told of being at his church one afternoon and as he walked past one of the church members, he was talking to a guy he knew was a Cop. Charles Stanley said that God told him to talk to the cop and Charles Stanley said he told God he was too busy, he would later.

Charles Stanley said that Cop went to work later that night and was killed in a shootout. His voice broke when he recounted how he had told God he was too busy, it would wait till late. You could tell it still haunts him to this day. It brought tears to my eyes when he mentioned that in his sermon.

The thought that I was too lazy or busy to even mention Jesus makes me crazy. I think of that Chick tract and Charles Stanley and I go out of my way to say something, anything to explain who Jesus is.

I do wonder if I come across as a lunatic sometimes though. I think I sometimes just start talking about Jesus without any kind of lead up and just jump right in. You know, start a conversation something like, "speaking of cabbage, did you know that Jesus is the son of God?"

I hope I do not come across that way, but I am sure sometimes I must. But maybe I don't sound too crazy, since I have had people come back to me and ask me questions about Jesus or the Bible or events that happen that make them think we might be in Biblical end times.
