It's
been a long day, but it's been fun.
Tonight,
we celebrated Kelsey and Erin's birthdays. They both share the same
birthday (November 21) and so we thought we would have something fun
on Friday so that a bunch of friends could come over and enjoy the
celebration.
It was
a good time, but I really cherished the time I got to spend meeting
fellow believers and watching them in action. I love the boldness
that God has gifted some people with, along with the articulation
that He has given to others.
It
encouraged me, and reminded me that we can be a light anywhere, and
to anyone.
Even
if they don't want to listen.
It is
important to be able to articulate your faith, especially to people
who don't know much about it, or do not ascribe to it for certain
reasons. The word tells me to hide all scripture in my heart so that
I will know the words to give to those who don't know the Lord or
what He has done for them.
I feel
like God is preparing me to be that bold witness, while equipping me
with knowledge and examples like I saw tonight. I feel like He has
been working this in me for a while, but I know now that this is the
time for me to respond, and to be what He is calling me to be...
A bold
& steadfast witness for him.
God
doesn't need a defender; he just needs a witness, someone who is
willing to testify of the grace and mercy that is abundant in Him.
I pray
that I become that person.
In
Christ,
Lilia
