Short Thought #17: Witnessing

           Why are people afraid of witnessing? Are you ashamed of your faith in Jesus? Because you most certainly should not be. Jesus is the Son of God and He came down from the riches and glory of Heaven, took off His glorious splendor and dressed Himself in your rags to take on your sins and be the scorn of many men. He died an unjust death on the cross, though He did not one thing wrong in hopes that He might gain you and your ashamed of Him? You’re afraid to talk about Him? You’re afraid to tell the lost, wretched and damned about Jesus? Now what if He was ashamed of you? Tables would turn now wouldn’t they? Don’t ever shrink back from professing your faith. Who cares what these people on this earth have to say. You can’t be in God’s Kingdom and be a people pleaser. You aren’t here to win friends and gain influence. You are here to be a beacon of light for God’s glory, further establishing His Kingdom in the Earth. When it’s time to talk about Jesus, let people have it and don’t hold back; He didn’t hold back from you, so be sure to always give Him your all.
