Day 22 – I got to go to the dentist
Today I got to go to the dentist. Just a regular cleaning appointment. But, did you notice that I said “got to?” That is something I learned from Mark Cahill in One Thing You Can’t Do in Heaven. If you have not read Mark’s book(s) I highly recommend it (them). Mark mentions in the book that as a Christian we no longer need to think like “I have to give” or “I have to go to church” but rather “I get to …”
With that in mind, when I go to the dentist, I also get to hand out some tracts there. So, going to the dentist becomes a good thing in terms of the chance to share the Gospel.
I think I have already given tracts to just about everyone that works there at the dentists office. My two favorite places to leave tracts there are
- On the table outside of the door to the office
- In the magazines in the waiting room
So I left at least 8-10 tracts at the dentists office today!
