He is coming back to this earth! To get His own.

It is understandable that many Christians fear or hesitate sharing their own experience of being a Christian, with others. 

It is understandable that there are those, calling themselves Christian and really acting more like a heathen. 

It is understandable that many who do share their testimony are being made fun of, ridiculed. 

In the end, though, we as followers of Christ must count the cost of being silent. 

By nature, we are taught to care only for number one, us.... which is in complete violation of the teachings of Christ.

Can we just for a moment, daily put ourselves into the shoes of the lost in spirit. The lost at heart and think about their consequence of being lost for eternity. 

Lost for eternity: being placed in a lake of fire!! According to what the scriptures say.
Burning in hell for eternity. Let that sink into our hearts. 

It is understandable that many do not want to get that picture of hell into their mind. But even if we are in the Kingdom of God, by accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior.....we still are responsible for sharing our testimony. Sharing the love God has been showing us, daily. Sometimes hour by hour, minute by minute when going through hard times. 

Will we just stop believing the lies that our testimony doesn't matter? Will we just stop believing the lies that others don't want nor need to hear what we have to say? 

In the days of Jesus walking the earth, all one could rely on getting information, were the stories one told. There was no written Bible, yet. Although the Torah (Jewish writings about God) did exist, it was still by one person teaching and many listening that God was made known. As well as the stories told in families and circles of friends and neighbors.

It is understandable that our modern culture is shying away from talking to each other face to face (hence the electronic monster). But wouldn't that be the perfect plan of an enemy to divide us? Keep us away from the stories written in the Bible and the sharing of it? 

Be brave, courageous and believe that someone's eternity can hinge on your testimony!!
Believe that your words matter! That your words can bring healing, deliverance, and life to a dead spirit and suffering soul. That your testimony is IMPORTANT.

Father, give us the conviction, boldness, and courage as Your children to share YOU  with others. Help us to speak the words of Jesus to a hurting and a lost world. AMEN
