It is important to remember that the Holy Spirit is the only one who brings anyone else to the Lord. With that said, I offer this as an answer to your question: Everywhere we go, we are to demonstrate our relationship with Christ by everything we do. Often that includes witnessing to others by sharing the Gospel with them. However, sometimes it is important for us to sow seeds of faith and cultivate the soil rather than attempt to reap a harvest before it is ready. In John 4:38, Jesus said to the disciples "I sent you to reap what you have not worked for. Others have done the hard work, and you have reaped the benefits of their labor." This implies that someone must do the hard work of sowing before the crop is ready for harvest. Hence, there are times we are called to prepare others to hear the Gospel so that when the evangelist comes, they will be ready to receive the message. Of course, we may indeed become the harvester, but not without first sowing and cultivating. Sometimes, it takes years before someone will be ready to listen to the Holy Spirit. For an excellent discussion of the importance of sowing, see "Finding Common Ground: How to communicate with those outside the Christian community, while we still can." Parable |
