BE BOLD!!!

This one is going to be short, I think. It kinda ties into my previous post.

It is time for Christians to stop saying things like "I wish I had your courage," "It sounds like a good cause, but...," "Wow, I admire what you are doing" and start saying things like "What can I do to help?," "How can I get involved?," "Do you have some information I can look over so I can make an informed decision after praying about this?"

Be BOLD! That's what God wants from us. How can we sit back and complain about how bad the world has become when we are not out there doing something to change it? Seek God's direction, ask for him to give you a passion and then JUMP IN!

I never imagined how fulfilling it could be to do just that. And, when I face opposition from those around me, I can take it as a blessing. It means I am doing something and Satan doesn't like it! Be proud of your opposition. The Bible says that we will be blessed when we are being persecuted by those around us. So, instead of fearing the controversy and confrontation, pray for God's peace and protection and embrace it. You're making a difference!
