Saying grace over my food gave me an opportunity to share the gospel

Colossians 4:3-6, “3 meanwhile praying also for us, that God would open to us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in chains, 4 that I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak (proclaim it clearly). 5 Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time (make the most of every opportunity). 6 Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.”

There are proactive and reactive evangelism. The below is an example of proactive evangelism.

I was having lunch with a new colleague of mine the other day. After the food was served, I bowed my head to say grace over my food. This colleague then asked me whether if I was a Catholic or a Christian. I said I was a Christian. Taking this as a door of opportunity, I requested her permission to share how I became a Christian six years ago. She agreed and I managed to sow some seeds into her life.
