Some time ago, I was reading at a devotional that talked about defending our faith. As Christians, that is nothing new. We have been defending it forever. I feel like we have to defend it more than ever now because our society feels that we are outdated and judgemental. But because we are fearful of the backlash (or at least want to miniumize it), we keep it to ourselves. I was one of those people for the longest time that believe that my relationship between God and myself was private and I didn't want to talk about it with others. But as I have grown in my faith walk, I have realized after all that God has done for me, the very least I can do is to spread His word and tell people about Him. But my doubts get in the way. How do I go about it? I don't want to be a pushy bible-thumper. I don't want to be disrespectful. But I do want to spread His word.
Lately, I have been wondering how to be the woman God calls me to be. I truly want to be that person, but I don't know how to go about it. Or if I am even doing what we wants me to be doing. I know part of it is sharing the word but I've never been one of those people that I have felt confortable talking in front a lot of people. I express myself better in the written word (although it may not seem it from reading this but I tend to go stream-of-consciousness). I guess what I'm trying to say is that, I am totally open for God to use me but I'm not sure what I'm going to be used for. But that is the thing about about following Him. We don't know where we are going. All we can do is have child-like faith and trust in Him completely. But I do know that I want to tell as many people that I can about Him and how wonderful He is.
