Don't be Mopey!
Monday, July 2, 2007 (6:40 am)
Acts 22:15 For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard.
Many times, our unbelieving family and coworkers — society in general, can make us feel small and inferior — like second class citizens — because we are Christians. Unfortunately, somewhere along the line, somehow, we begin to believe it! We become what I like to call "mopey Christians," just moping around, keeping our faith hidden under a bushel, feeling afraid to say a word about Jesus, in fear that we might offend someone! And that's precisely what the enemy wants us to feel!
But we can choose whether or not to give in to his foolishness today! Jesus said that those who follow after Him shall never hunger or thirst — they have been set free from the law of sin and death — they've been renewed, cleansed, forgiven, loved with an everlasting love! How on earth can we mope about that??
We need a reality check. We should be holding our heads high today and ready to tell people about the great work he's done in us! We have been redeemed! There's so much work to be done!
