Bringing Others Back

Everyone and their faith journeys are different. Some remain close to God some have the occasional time where they don't feel close to Him and some fall away from Him. It's always good when the ones who have fallen away start to come back or discover something about faith.

Recently, I was told that I saved someone from becoming an Atheist. I was rather taken a back by that statement because I had no idea I was doing that. Sure, I have faith. I go to Mass every week. But I don't consider how I might be influenecing another person by going about my day. And I'm sure I'm not alone in that.

People do pay attention to the things we do. They do see that we believe in God. They see us relying on faith to get through the hard times. They see us saying things that only a person who has faith would say. And sometimes their lives and hearts are changed. Sometimes they want a piece of what we have. Sometimes they realize what is going to fill that hole in their heart. Be that person. Be that person who brings someone back to God. Our world with all of it's bad needs God. It needs more people who want something to do with Him. Be that person. Inspire and bring someone to Him.
