I was on my way to somewhere when someone extended his hand to me, handing out some flyers .. and it somehow made me wonder how hard it is to give those out knowing that 70% of people you give it to will just ignore it ?? make fun of you and may think you or your product is a waste of time ?? and how uncomfortable is it to stand for hours may it be under the heat of the sun or inside a mall ?
Flyers or Fliers are also called Leaflets or Pamphlets or a Handbill .. but whatever name you'll call it .. it will still have the same meaning and purpose .. which is to relay information and provide awareness to the public.
It is a form of a community communication, a form of communication for people who wants to engage the public.
This event led me to a revelation: Spreading the word of God is like giving out flyers ! Think about this metaphor : We Christians are the promoters and we spread the word like giving out flyers, in a way that we stretch out our hands to reach out to people expecting that they would give us even a piece of their attention .. and where some would take what your giving, read it, understand it, accept your product and aim for more of it .. but also, some will read the contents then ignore it, or even ignore it without even reading or knowing what the contents are.
But the question is : Are you willing to go out in the field and give out flyers ?? are you willing to take the risk of standing out of your comfort zone and stand in the middle of the battle field to deliver important informations and awaken the crowd's awareness ??
It starts from your willingness to act that is followed by deeds that one's life is greatly changed .. Take that great step of faith and be amazed of where it would take you :)
