Luke 2-3

What God said to me – John the Baptist lived in a difficult time in history and people were looking for and longing for the coming of Christ.  They even asked John himself if he was the Messiah.  Now while people were in a state of expectation and wondering, John used the opportunity to point them to Me.  He preached repentance and baptized them, but he pointed them to Me for their salvation.  You live in a difficult time in history and people are looking for and longing for My return.  Use this uncertainty and fear to point them to Me.  When people talk about all the turmoil and instability in politics and the economy and the world situation, use this as the opportunity to talk about the peace and forgiveness they can find in Me.  Like John the Baptist, point them to Me.
