Belief-Based Proselytization

01:58:10 :: [theology, phys & pharm] :: 177 words

It has struck me as incredible that I’ve caught onto sales at my new job—a vitamin, supplement, and sport nutrition store—lately. Like, I believe that it’s important to be very healthy, and I truly believe from my own personal studies that X supplements can help support Y and Z conditions.

And it’s struck me how stagnant I’ve been in my walk with Christ lately. Sharing one’s faith is a natural outworking of belief; but this isn’t just some mystical concept. There’s proof in any person who is genuinely selling you something because they believe in it, because it’s worked for them. I can tell you that 4 000+ GDUs daily of bromelain, an enzyme from pineapple, combined with a few drops of sublingual oregano oil and some echinacea/goldenseal combo have helped my sinus inflammation immensely; can I not also tell you the wonders Christ has accomplished in my life? I should be able to; and now begin once again.

It’s been a long time. Here’s to new beginnings and fresh starts that aren’t mere words.
