This quote by Madeleine L'Engle offers us much to reflect on when we think of the witness we want to be for the world as a disciple of Christ:
"Evangelism is not what we tell people, unless what we tell is totally consistent with who we are. It is who we are that is going to make the difference .... If we do not have love in our hearts, our words of love will have little meaning. If we do not truly enjoy our faith, nobody is going to catch the fire of enjoyment from us. If our lives are not totally centered on Christ, we will not be Christ-bearers for others, no matter how pious our words."
