Your Lifestyle matters


Years back while I was Still in school, I had a Muslim roommate that wasn't so friendly in my hostel and somehow we became friends and started doing somethings together. But when it comes to religion, we always go our different ways. 

I couldn't preach to her about Christ or tell her to follow me to church because i know she was a very strong Muslim but I do pray for her. 
Every Wednesday we have our fellowship in school at the chapel, and i never invited her because she will always say "No ". Despite our different religion, we were still very good friends.

Now, she's always hearing people say  I sing very well and most times my roommates want to join me to church just to hear me lead praise. She's always left alone whenever we go for fellowship. 

One faithful day, this Muslim friend of mine, called me that she really likes my person and character?  and she would love to hear me sing and that when next I'm going for fellowship, she wants to go with me. Honestly I was shocked but I was also happy that she would havea different feel for once. The next fellowship meeting, I made sure I didn't delay her to get there early and she really enjoyed the service.
That was how she received Christ and became a Christian.
Dear musicians, people watch what we do and how we treat people. Let your lifestyle also make people want to follow this God you serve. You don't know who is watching you. Your life could be the first bible they will every read. You don't know who will receive christ because they see God in you. Be conscious about how you treat people. Be a blessing and not a barrier.
God bless you as we make God proud.
