So as the new year has arrived I have been praying to God to give me a word to live by this year. As I was driving home today and worshipping and praying, God laid on my heart the word bold. B o l d.
As I've grown more in my faith in the past year, the Lord's really shown me how necessary it is for me to share my faith with others. I'm starting to really understand how we may be the only Bible people read and/or see.
As I've gone back to work in a secular environment, my faith has really been tested. I'm starting to realize that I need to stop being so scared of sharing my faith. People are not always going to like me and that's okay. It's time to be b o l d in standing up for what I believe is right and not back down. God's already shown me so many ways to being bold, not compromising my purity, not swearing, and not engaging in activities that I shouldn't be apart of. God's already given me opportunities to be bold this year and that's wonderful.
I want to be b o l d in my studies, b o l d in my purity, b o l d in my weight loss, and b o l d in sharing my faith.
Here's to a year full of growing closer to the Lord and being b o l d.
Joshua 1:9, "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."
Blessings,
Anna
