Good Morning!
Dave Thomas, the founder of Wendy’s restaurants, was in more than 800 television commercials. He offered his homespun humor and “old-fashioned hamburgers” to a worldwide audience. Viewers saw him as friendly, funny, believable, and caring. In spite of his popularity, though, Thomas always said he was “the messenger, not the message.”
That’s good to remember as we witness to our friends and family. While our behavior should always match what we say, our goal is to point others to Jesus and not to ourselves.
John the Baptist knew that his role was to be a messenger for Christ. He said, I indeed baptize you with water, but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose”(Luke 3:16).
Through our words and actions, we testify of Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. We are His messengers, but He is the message.
