Paul says that prophesying and speaking in tongues is the best way for unbelievers to see God's glory. But that is very difficult for some people to do. Although prophesying is one of the gifts God gives us, it is not the only thing we can do for nonbelievers to see that God exists.
Being made in the image of God, we are expected to portray the essence of God: Love. Everything we do reflects God even if it's picking up something another person dropped, or holding the door for someone. I found this passage kind of difficult to handle because I have never spoken tongues nor have I really seen someone speak it.
The passage says prophesying is the best way to show God is real, but for those who are not strong in that department, we should find other ways to show God's love - God's presence.
That is what I want to do.. I want to exude God's love.. say hi to people i normally don't say hi to, hold more doors for people..stuff like that..
