To this date my journey with Christ has been over 4 years. In my walk, God has asked me to do some small duties like pick up trash, put away shopping carts and even pick up underwear.
He has later asked me to do much larger tasks like pray for complete strangers, share my testimony to a crowd and then share my dirty laundry to the whole world in my book "God Made Me Pick Up Underwear, Finding Faith In Unusual Places."
With all the above activities under my belt one may assume that I've turned many to Christ. To my knowledge I'm not really sure how many have actually changed due to my activities.
In the beginning I desired to see many lives transformed right before my eyes especially the lives of my family and friends. I wanted to see a revival because of my handy work. To my dismay I found myself very frustrated when I led someone to say the sinner's prayer without any true sign of change.
I have come to realize that my job is not to save souls but to sow seed. The seeds that I sow is my witness of a changed life, my smiles, my hellos and my prayers for others.
I've come to realize that it doesn't matter if lives change right before my eyes. It is probably better if it doesn't. If it were than I may think I did it.
I've come to realize that it is not my job to save the world because I am but a farmer. Jesus Christ saves that is why He is the Savior. I am to just continue sowing seed as it is said in Mark 4:26-27:
"The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground.... and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know."
