C h e s t e r became concerned about his unsaved friend. It was not easy to communicate with him as he lived in another city. They met only on rare occasions. He finally decided to write a letter to him. Chester realized that it was not an easy matter to write to a friend about his spiritual welfare. How should he introduce the subject? What if his friend resented the suggestion that he needed to receive Christ as his personal Saviour? He decided that his communication should be direct and personal, giving his own testimony about his Chris­ tian experience. So he wrote: “When we were together at your uncle’s funeral, there was something I very much wanted to tell you. So many other things seemed to demand our attention that there just wasn’t an opportunity for a personal con­ versation. Since we may not see each other for some time, I am writ­ ing to you about this. “Being a Christian and believing in Jesus Christ as my personal Saviour has given me the greatest possible satisfaction and happiness. It has helped me overcome a lot of worries and has given me a real purpose for living. Life seemed so meaningless to me before, but now I have a deep understanding of what it is all about. It has helped me in my work and in my family life. It has made my life worth living every day. “Bill, I am concerned about you. If you have not already received Jesus Christ as your personal Sav­ iour, why don’t you try it? I rec­ ommend it most highly. Why don’t you do it right now? Just ask Christ to forgive your sins and come into your life. Don’t put it off. It is too good to miss. Concerned C h r i s t i a n s surely have a friend, a relative, or an ac­ quaintance to whom they could write such a letter. Every Christian must know someone who needs Jesus Christ as his Saviour and to expe­ rience a new meaning in living. The problem may be how to communicate one’s concern and to tell the unsaved person about his own personal sat­ isfaction in being a Christian. Try writing.
