Time to be Bold

Between the radio going and dazing off in my own world it is so easy to take a wrong turn without recognizing it. I think it is time that I hit my brakes, slow down and pull to the side and make sure I am on the right path.

This past week the Holy Spirit has convicted me. I am not nearly as Bold for Christ as I should be. It's so easy to talk to my core group of friends about God and about their spiritual lives and while I am SO thankful for that and it's a huge blessing- I must do more to spread Christ. I'm going to be completely honest I only talk about God on a deep level with my core group of friends because I am scared of how others will respond. I don't want to step on others toes or offend them. Yes, I truly believe that we should lead by example- most of the time actions do speak louder than words.

But hear this: God requires more. Much more.

We have been given the task to carry the name of Jesus. I admit often times I let Him down and instead of lifting Him up higher and higher I drag Him around as if it's a burden. As Jesus says in Matthew 11:30 "the burden I give you is LIGHT!" We are so blessed that the creator of the Universe chooses to call us His children!

"It is no shame to suffer for being a Christian. Praise God for the privilege of being called his name!" -1 Peter 4:16.

I have missed sharing the good news of Christ with so many people. This week I have been so disgusted with the ways of sin and I become disappointed in myself for not looking out for their best interest and not speaking Christ into their lives. I am challenging myself to get out of my comfort zone and seek out the lost people. To be BOLD in asking about their spiritually life and about God. There are so many people that are in great need of a Savior and I cant hold back any longer. So I am turning my car around and going back to get the people I simply just waved at or ignored and picking them up on the bandwagon of Christ.


I am saying Yes, to you Lord, to wherever you lead me. I am completely yours.
