I want to share the gospel...to be strong in the Lord.

I'm encourged by reading a few books from Voice of the Martyrs. Such encourgement has to be of the Holy Spirit. They're so strong in the Lord. I want to be given the courge like they have. No matter the threat...never deny Jesus. Facing persecution, possible death for His sake? They've rejoiced and prayed for their enemies. It doesn't matter the threat or harm. They risk it all for the sake of Christ and spreading His gospel.

I want to be that strong in the Lord. Thing is I realize how weak I really am. I have trouble...I can't even seem to share my testimony with my parents. :( I hope He will take my small faith and turn it into something big... :sighs:

I don't want to be lukewarm. I don't want to sit idle. I want to be like Daniel. To be able to not fear and still trust in God even if there's lions involved.
