John 13:38 "Then Jesus answered, "Will you really lay down your life for me? I tell you the truth, before the roster crows, you will disown me three times."” I can "feel” very spiritual during praise and worship, reading my Bible and praying. I can “feel” like I would lay down my life for Jesus. I sometimes imagine facing being martyred for my faith. Would I truly have the guts, the courage to stand strong? I can imagine that I would. Then while having a conversation with strangers and sometimes even with my friends I’m not as bold in my faith as I know the Spirit is promoting me to be. If I cave to being politically correct in my speech will I truly, stand for Jesus when the going gets tough? I pray that I have the courage today in my speech and my actions to be the woman God created me to be even if I don’t “feel” like it. I hope to practice courage in Christ today, so I can stand strong in all things in all times . That includes resisting the sins that seem acceptable.
