Building Bridges to God

Bridges help us get from one place to another. They help us connect. Sometimes there may be something that hinders us from making it to the other side (like the ocean) and a bridge can help us to reach the other side.

An instructor of mine in college told our class that people are like bridges. He said that by sharing with others how they could come to have a personal relationship with God we could become a bridge to help others connect with Him. He said that if the people we shared with were open to the message there was the possibility that Christ would walk right into their hearts. This thought stayed with me. What a wonderful thing that we can do for others! I hope that I and many others can act as a bridge and help others find the living God.

"...Christ changed us from enemies into his friends and gave us the task of making others his friends also." - 2 Corinthians 5:18 (Good News Bible)
