….For whosoever shall be ashamed of Me and of My words, of him shall the Son of Man be ashamed when He shall come in His own glory… (Lk.9:26)

Hi Mahesh!,” I said and smiled at my old friend as he came and sat next to me in the park, then smiled at a new friend I’d met just the day before, “Hi Robin, how are you, have you met Mahesh?” Both looked at each other for the first time and shook hands. “Mahesh is a banker,” I explained to Robin, “And Robin is a stock broker.”
“A stockbroker!,” said Mahesh, “How interesting!” I watched as both started a conversation.
I was just about to move when I saw my old friend Mohan, “Hey Mohan!” I said, “Meet my two friends, Robin and Mahesh!” I completed the introductions and saw a familiar figure waving to me. I walked to him, “Hi Jesus!” I said, “Wait a minute and we’ll walk together.”
“Just you and Me, Bob?”
“Yes Jesus, just You and me, like we walk each day!”
“But Bob, I want to be introduced to your friends!”
“They’re not your type, Lord!”
“But they’re your type?”
“Well, not exactly, Lord, but I get along well with them!”
“And you don’t think I will?”
“Like I said….”
“They’re not My type, right?”
“Yes, Lord!”
“Or is it that you think I’m not their type?”
“Lord, you’re making it difficult!”
“Bob, I meet you here every morning! We walk together, we talk to each other, you share the innermost feelings of your heart with Me, but when I ask to be introduced to your friends, you refuse? Do you know why? Because you are ashamed of Me!”
“You must be joking!” I exclaimed loudly, “How could I be ashamed of my best friend? Of my Lord and God?”
“That’s exactly what I’m thinking!”
“How can I be ashamed of someone who gave up His life for me?”
“You’ve hit the nail on the head! You tell Me, Bob?”
“What I’m saying, Lord, is that I’m not ashamed of You! That I’m proud to call You my friend, to tell others of what You’ve done for me,”
“Then tell them!”
“I do that in church, don’t I?”
“Do it everywhere, here in the park, in your office, at home, in your club, everywhere! Tell them what I’ve done for you. Maybe, they also need Me to do the same for them. That Robin over there looks like he could do with Me, Mahesh needs Me in his life, I could change Mohan quite a bit! Come on Bob, introduce Me please! Introduce Me to your friends, Let Me change their lives like I changed yours, Bob…Bob why are you going away?”
