Yesterday was Sunday, and because I was very sick, and caught a nasty cold I didn't make it to church. Even though I didn't get to go to church I found myself worshiping in my home, playing the piano and singing to the Lord, and just spending my day alone with God! In the afternoon I made myself pasta and coffee (and for dinner, I made making pasta again!) I’ve become very fond of Pasta, Alfredo sauce, and Pesto. So as I ate lunch, I decided to put on a movie called, “Faith Like Potatoes.” This movie is based on a true story about a farmer who lived in Zulu, Africa. His story is inspiring and fascinating and something about it just makes me ask myself, “God, send me to places where you want to be seen.” During the movie someone quoted a quote, and I was in such amazement over this quote that I paused the movie and wrote it down.
The quote was this, “It’s not the violence of the few that scares me as much as the silence of many.”
How perfect is that? The truth is just a matter of a few words! I was shocked. You know, this world is in such a bad shape and even though people say, “We need to stand up!” In reality, no one really does. It made me wonder, have I been too silent? Have I taken the time to really think about the people who live with no hope? There is a time when we will ask ourselves, “Will I stand up? Or will I keep living with the culture?” God wants us to be the Light! You don’t need to start by doing something huge; you can start by taking the little steps to get to the big steps. Will you make your voice heard and tell others that Jesus is Lord? Against the violence, against the hatred, against all evil, will you step up and take action?
I pray you do, this is what I want to do! I want to share the love of God to many, I pray you will not fear man, but fear God instead.
