Dont be quiet for society's sake!

So, I picked up Michael's bible today, and decided to turn to the scripture reading recommended for today's date.

Matthew 20:29-34

I like to do this sometimes in hopes that God will use it to help me with something I am struggling with. And while I cant think of a particular time or event that this scripture applied to me, I started thinking about being a Christian in general in today's society. Its a hard role to play sometimes. We want to "Shout to the Lord, all the earth let us sing" but the people around us don't want to hear it. In other words they are telling us to be quiet. Imagine if those two blind men sitting at the side of the road outside of Jericho would have been intimidated by the crowd (society) and shushed when they were told to! What an opportunity they would have missed out on since Jesus heard their cries, and HEALED them! He gave two blind men sight who were yelling out over the crowds for Him! Amazing. So the next time you feel like calling out to God or speaking of/for Him, DO it, and don't let this world keep you from sharing your faith! I know I wont! I will always be reminded of these two men! :)

Have a great Monday!!
