Learning the lives of the martyrs and
apologist made me an impact on how these people gave up their lives
for the sake of the Gospel. It made me think deeply where I am very
emotional as I learned from them. I am very grateful that they did
not surrender even though they are persecuted, tortured or broken
into pieces. They did not recant their faith in God because if they
do, probable we are not be able to hear and know the truth. I am
blessed with these people because even though they are hard pressed
or was falsely accused but they continue to defend their God. Their
testimony encourages me being a believer of Christ to be confident,
to be bold, to fear no one except God alone in sharing the Gospel. My
faith on Him increases of what I know and how God works into their
lives miraculously. God never sleeps and He is always at works in
each of us. He never abandon His people but find favor on Him. Maybe
in introducing these people to the church, I believe that they will
be moved and will see the need of the people who doesn't know Christ
yet.
There's a lot of changes the way I
think. By knowing these things it changes my perspective. As a
Christian we should not be lax or contented being a church goer but
be able to make a difference in peoples lives. I was reminded by the
song entitled “find us faithful”. I hope with myself that my
testimony with Christ as my Savior will leave a legacy; that there is
a legacy that will leave behind when God takes me home. This helps me
to share courageously about the Lord Jesus Christ to the unsaved.
Christ bought me at a price and my life is for God and now I am
living for Him so I must give my all in all to God. I know that God
wants to reach all the people and I believe that what happened in the
past fulfills the purpose and plan of God. I hope and will pray that
I will continue to serve God no matter what circumstances I may
encounter. I exists to serve God!
Being a Christian is not really easy
but living up for God and with God is a privilege. In order to put
these positive changes into practice is to create ways that I will
take so that these lesson I've learned will be apply in my life. As a
believer I will share the Gospel to the unbelievers. There is no need
to feel fear or afraid about knowing that God will not leave His
children behind and alone without His help. It is to help other
people in their physical, emotional, mental and above all their
spiritual needs. I will serve and glorify His name in my life by
helping other people. Also to obey the commands of the Lord in which
everyone of us is involve in a mission. This mission is to proclaim
the redemptive work of Christ and that is my mission; our mission. It
is also my prayer to be rich toward God in my life.
The Bible clearly states that we
Christians must be courageous and strong in whatever life may bring
forth. God has created us to do good works and we are called to do
mission and so we need to be bold especially in proclaiming about the
love of God. The only thing is we need to trust that God will lead us
in our way.
