Where are you?

Where are you at today?  Now, I am not talking about some existential philosophical "where are you"mumbo jumbo.  But literally, where are you?  Are you at work? Home?  The Golf Course? Wal-Mart?  

Wherever you are and wherever you spend most of your days, does your life let others know about Jesus Christ?  

In Acts Chapter 8 the church has just been struck with a great persecution that has scattered believers throughout the areas surrounding Jerusalem.  Acts 8:4 is very striking:  "Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went." In the face of bitter persecution and in communities that they may not have been completely comfortable, believers were proclaiming Christ.  

I wish that the same could be said about my life, and about the lives of believers all around me.  We face only minor persecutions and yet we do not often preach Christ to those around us.  I pray today that your life, and my life would preach the Word wherever we are.  

So where are you today?  And what is your life preaching?
