The Adventures of P&B!

I have been reading from acts and recently I read Acts 14:8-20. It's called Gods or Men? Paul and Barnabas have just gone to Lystra and they see this man who can't walk. Paul told him to get up and walk, and he did. They thought that P and B where gods. Paul then said they were not gods but men just like them. They wanted the men to embrace God as their one true God. Verse 15 says "We don't make God; he makes us, and all of this-- sky, earth, sea, ,and everthing in them". Paul was then beaten, but he got up and with B went on his way to preach in Derbe. P and B had great faith, and nothing or no one could stop them from preaching the gosspil and worshiping the one true God. If every christian ( and this includes me) had their faith, their would be alot more christians. We can't always be luke warm. That's what I have to work on, is showing people what christ can do for them, by letting them see what he has done for me. Pray for me (the school is my battlefield). Why is it so hard to tell people about christ. P and B had no propblem telling everyone about God.

I just want you to know I think you're awesome! Standing up for and sharing your faith can be difficult at time, especially during high school, but just realize no matter what the outcome, you are doing what God has asked you to do. Leave the results up to Him.
Love ya, mean it!
