Godwinks become contagious

One of the unexpected joys I get from writing this blog are the wonderful conversations, emails, and notes I receive when people share the Godwinks in their lives. I get so excited when I hear other people sharing that their eyes are open to Godwinks and hear the eagerness in their voice as they share. When I started writing, I prayed that I would reach just one person with my writing. That someone, somewhere, would become passionated about God by hearing how God has and continues to work in my life. I never imagined the stories I would hear or how word would be spread. I never imagined how others would become bold in their faith and begin to share their stories, their testimonies, and their Godwinks. Peter encouraged early Christians and his words are relevant today, “Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good? But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. Do not fear their threats; do not be frightened.” But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander” (1 Peter 3:13-16, NIV). What better way to bring others to Christ than to share the hope we have in Him?
