Take courage
The theme of Sunday evening's youth service was ‘Mission’. We were challenged by our young people to consider how we set about ‘making disciples of all nations’ in our daily lives. It was both an entertaining and thought-provoking service.
The thought that it
left uppermost in my mind was that when we ‘adults’ take courage, let
our work colleagues know we are Christians and share our faith, it is
usually received with politeness – even by people who might privately
think we’re barking! I suspect that this is not always the case with
young people in schools, colleges and universities. They may well face
ridicule, mockery and derision. So as we pray for the courage to share
our faith for ourselves, let’s thank God for young Christians and ask
him to give them a double helping of courage and blessings.
