Yesterday morning in service my husband told us that we are filled with the Holy Spirit, not so we can feel good in church, but so we can do the work God has for us to do once church is over. He also encouraged us to ask God to give us an opportunity to witness to someone this week and then to have the courage to do it. He said all we need to be a witness is to know what Jesus has done for us and then tell others of that. That a witness is telling the truth about Jesus. We don't have to be Bible scholars. We just have to know what He's done for us.
Now, I'm going to challenge you. Ask God for an opportunity to witness to someone this week and then ask Him for the courage to do it.
Having the courage--that's where I often fall short. Thanks for this encouragement.
ReplyDeleteamen! We often focus on OUR ability when our real focus should be on just being obedient....the result is up to God not us!!! Thanks for this reminder!
