How do you live you life? Do you let fear control your day or even portions of it?
I was watching a movie with my 3 kids over the weekend. It was Mr. Mangorium's Wonder Emporium. The movie dealt with the fear of change. I saw many different challenges that we allow to hold us back from our true potential. The movie had a quote that just stuck to me. "Life is an occasion, rise up to it."
How true was that quote. We as Christians allow so many things to hold us back from our true potential as Followers of Jesus Christ. I am in no way perfect, but I am excited for the opportunity to rise to the occasion of talking about Jesus. It is hard at first to share Christ. It was also hard at first to ride a bike, but the more I did it the easier it got. I can now get a bike and just ride. I am still working on that skill in my Christian walk, but the more I do it the more second nature it will become. I was afraid to ride a bike at first, now I ride with no fear. We are afraid t oshare our faith at first, but over time in will be something that is done with no fear.
The Fearless-Factor for today is Matthew 17:7 "But Jesus came and touched them. "Get up", He Said. "Don't be Afraid". 8 When they looked up, they saw no one but Jesus. When you fall look up and see only Christ. Christ is telling us Get Up and don't be afraid. Rise to the occasion. Life in Christ is the occasion. Rise up and hold your head up high. Get up and....
Be Fearless and Quiet No More.
