Among the crowds there was widespread whispering about Him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others replied, “No He deceives the people.” But no one would say anything publicly about Him for fear of the leaders. John 7:12-13

Today you are invited to consider how brave you are. Do you whisper about Jesus behind closed doors, or do you speak out about Him and your relationship with Him? Where do you find it hard to talk about Him? What makes it so difficult? The people did not speak out for fear of the leaders. Who do you fear? Why? Where do you need courage at the moment in regard to declaring your faith? Ask Jesus to show you the way and follow His lead. What is He saying to you today?

May God bless you with the courage you need to follow Him through the world and its ways today.
