Praise

My brother
I have been going though some issues lately that have caused me to have problems if that makes any sense. i do have a silver lining to this dark cloud. my brother is in a sticky stiuation and i talked with him for the fisrt time yesterday since the beginning of this incident. i asked him if he believed in Jesus. he told me yes. he said he needs to read proverbs like mom suggested so i refered him to "us" the DAB. i know is dosn't seem like much but i am happy because i got up the courage to talk about Jesus to someone whom i am slightly intimidated by, not in a bad way though. so i see this as a first step in spreading the Good News as Jesus has instructed all of us to do. I just thought i would share.

Congrats Tameka! I soooo know what you mean to finally tell someone about your love for Jesus. I recently told my mom and my kids only because I was going to share my testimony during our church service. I still haven't told my brothers. I think its so much harder to share my faith with my family than anyone else. I guess because I care what they think and am scared of rejection. Anyway, God is proud of you and so are we!

I also struggle with fear in this area. It shouldn't be this way. Scripture tells us that the readeemed were written in the book of life at the foundation of the world, so success is guaranteed. I have found that with every act of obedience, the next is just that much easier.
