    The right words at the right time! We are called to be set apart and different from others but that’s tough in a society that preaches fitting in! I love how you said our joy in Christ should make others want to know more about Him! I remember the fire I had for Christ as a young Christian…it’s dulled some since life got busy with family, work, and kids! I yearn for that fire again and the NEED to read God’s word and meet with Him! This study helps bring that back!
    You talked about having a testimony..I LOVE hearing a good testimony. I was raised in a Christian home, going to church each week, and was helped to be led to Christ at a young age by my parents. Sometimes I don’t feel like I have much of a testimony. Life hasn’t been easy by any means..but sometimes I think just having a positive attitude and finding God in everything is a good start in testifying for God! Thank you for this study!

    • Having a positive attitude in all things is certainly one of the greatest testimonies!! And such a negative world! I love how you say a world that preaches fitting in! I cried the day I wrote this because I remember the first time I was “laughed at” for carrying my bible around “making it be a show” it was by friends that I got made fun of. And I remember how hard it was to show that change that day even though I was saved in such a radical way and that breaks me everyday because I think to myself gosh if it was that hard for me, it’s got to be that much harder for others and in that moment it’s hard to feel that it’s okay, I cried to entire way home that night from work.. but it’s when people start SEEING the change in your life, in your attitude, in how you treat others or even how you treat yourself that bring people to the feet of Jesus. And that’s another life! Every time I hear that someone else has felt inspired by someone else’s or even my own boldness I just cry, it’s all so personal to me now!
