While shopping at the local Christian bookstore, I was inspired to buy a new tool to help in every-average-day ministry.
They were a pack of $2 cards called Faith Builders... they came with 20 bible verses placed on a business card with a pretty picture on it.
I've decided that from here on in, if I come across a person in need (for example, a beggar on the street), or if I meet a new friend, rather than just buying them a coffee or handing out some spare change, I can add a Faith Builder business-card with One Bible Verse on it.
Why? Because it's simpler than a Bible tract, and can cause a person to wonder about the goodness of God... they can read a bible verse without even being given a bible.... and this could be a "hint" for them to explore their faith further. Enhancing everyday ministry, and not missing a moment to share the word of God.
The bible says "The word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword." Hebrews 4:12.
Before handing them out, I'd pray that the cards would fall into the hands of people who need to hear Christ's Inspirational Message that day... you never know whose life can change based on a simple bible verse given to them by a stranger. :)
