a thought for the day
just something real quick. . . .
Often times we think to ourselves before we share the gospel with someone
a thought so silly as . .
"well who am I to tell that person about Jesus"
i just really thought about this thought and ya know what
that's a crazy thought to have
lets think about it
how often do we tell people about other things that really dont matter to us
how often do we tell people about the cool new movie we just saw
or the new video game we played that was awesome
or ladies where you got them new heels on that crazy sale at that one place
I mean think about it
we tell people about things all the time
so why do we run from this conversation into a corner of
"who am I to say something"
as children of God and ambassadors of Christ
it is our mission to tell others about Him
maybe we are afraid we will look like hypocrites
because of things that we used to do
or maybe things that we know that we do now
if it's things we know we do now
we must fight against those things in our lives
and we will find victory against those things in Christ
not just victory over the sin but also the guilt of the sin
and if it's what we used to do
we must stand up in boldness and in the comfort of His promise
that He has changed us from those things
so that we may bring Him glory
and we must speak of Him
instead of worrying about being hypocrites
we should seek to be the heroes who take a stand
to be the ones who have that awkward conversation
that the rest of the world tries to avoid
to be the apples
in a world full of oranges
Heroes not Hypocrites
