Trying to get a post in as I wait to leave to catch my bus. Work, yeah it's only going to be at least another 40 years of it.. Let's make it a mission field. We spend more time at our workplace then we do at home around people that can influence us for the better or the opposite, the worse. This is where having a strong foundation of the truth is important. We don't just go to work, we go to show Jesus. With our words, actions or even as little as not participating in a conversation. Everyone is watching you. They know that you're a Christian, they point fingers, and ask you tough questions but the Holy Spirit gives you the courage to stand firm. These past couple months have been so challenging for me. Being reminded daily that unbelievers will try to bring you shame for not being "open minded" being too "uptight" but in Jesus we cannot be put to shame! For the Scripture says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” Romans 10:12. Our identity is not found in what others think of you, what they say or how they act towards you. Identity is found in Christ where there is such freedom. So I encourage you, to let the Holy Spirit give you moments of courage to spread the most important news of all. Jesus saves.
I don't even know what to say right now.. I keep reading your blog and you are SOOOO inspiring! Thanks for taking the time to write these because they are great to hear and I'm sure they'll encourage other Christians as well! Keep up the good work.
