Has God ever laid something on your heart that scared you? Has He ever called you into a situation that was uncomfortable, or even dangerous? Often, I think of my friends who have been missionaries all over the world. In some countries, their very lives are at risk because they are boldly sharing the Good News. In fact, my life has been at risk on many occasions, when I’ve shared the Good News in places that don’t allow biblical Christianity.

At some point or another, we will all need to choose between courage and fear. In these moments, we have two options: to press onward, or to retreat to our comfort zones. 

1 Corinthians 15:58 in the Bible reminds us of the importance of pressing onward and choosing courage, saying “Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.”

As you hear this message, consider what God has been laying on your heart. How does God want to use You to share His message? How can you share the Good News? Think about it, then move with courage and be bold for Jesus Christ.
