TOPIC: The Results Are God’s
[Paul] planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase.
1 Corinthians 3:6
RECOMMENDED READING
Matthew 13:18-33
The late William R. Bright, cofounder of Campus Crusade for Christ (now Cru), offered a biblical definition of witnessing: Witnessing is sharing Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit and leaving the results to God. Many Christians worry about being rejected when they share God’s Word. But when we leave the results to God, it takes the focus off of our performance and results.
The apostle Paul shared this perspective when he wrote to the Corinthian church. He said that he planted the seed of the Gospel, Apollos nurtured the seed, but it was God who brought forth the fruit of salvation. When Jesus told His parable of the sower, seed, and soils, He illustrated how seeds do not always fall on fertile ground. Likewise, when we share the seed of God’s truth, we are not responsible for the condition of the heart in those who hear the Word. In Jesus’s parable, only one in four soils was prepared to receive the Word and bring forth fruit (Matthew 13:3-23).
Don’t let fear of rejection keep you from sharing God’s truth with others, whether it’s the Gospel of salvation or just a word of encouragement, today. Leave the results to God.

Faithful witness is truth telling, not head counting.
