AT THE BEACH

To be known and knowing the people in your community is very important for doing business.

That’s what I have been told long ago and I have experienced it myself. A still vivid situation from some time ago popped into my head only today while walking.

You don’t get very far with people who don’t know you. But it is completely different with people you know.

If it is already so important in ordinary life to be known and to know the persons in your town, how much more important is it, when it comes to our spiritual life?

How encouraging it is to remember the promise in the Bible in Second Timothy 2:19, where it says, “‘THE LORD KNOWS THOSE WHO ARE HIS,'” especially when you deal with people you don’t know and people who don’t know you, and you don’t get anywhere with your requests.

Let us remember that our relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ decides our eternal destiny.
