From Jesus Himself

To those who have told me in just the past 24 hours, I would love to not be afraid to stand up for what I know deep down is right, just have to share with you something wonderful! Just opened my Bible to this: "Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not they peace. For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city."
(Acts l8:9, 10)

Does it not fill us with awe that it was Jesus who uttered these bracing words?! Need we any more encouragement than this?! Speaking up for what's pure and holy and God-given--and doing so in Christly love--(always it must be done in Christly love), will bring God's blessings beyond anything we can imagine.
