Showing Your Faith

I'll start by introducing myself. Hi, I'm Allyson, and I'm a member of iYOUth! I don't know if anyone else feels like this, but ever since I became a Christian I've struggled with showing my faith. I want to touch other people's live and minister to them, but something just kept me from it. When I found this verse it helped me realize what's more important. What people think of me or what He thinks of me. I thought of the constant battle that teenagers fight to show their peers their relationship with God or conform to the "normal" behavior, but really it can apply to anyone!

Jeremiah 1:17-19
"Get yourself ready! Stand up and say
to them whatever I command you. Do not be terrified by them, or I will terrify you before them. Today I have made you a fortified city, an iron pillar and a bronze wall to stand against the whole land-against the kings of Judah, its officials, its priest and the people of the land. They will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you and will rescue you," declares the Lord.

The Lord of Lords is telling YOU to go out and minister to other people. Who are we to tell Him no? He says that it will be hard but He will help you.

Romans 8:31 What, then shall we say in response to this?
If God is for us, who can be against us?


Sorry I'm not the best writer in the world but still I hope this can help! I'll be praying that anyone who has it in their heart to reach other people has the strength and courage to do so!
