As Youth in the U.S.

As young people in the United States of America, we know warm houses, cars, phones, and pretty much everything we need.  Right? Yes and no.  There are those few in this country that truly NEED.  I have never had to go hungry because there was no food.  I have never been cold in my house to a point that I could be harmed, I have never even had to work for what I own.  As a youth, my parents bear the brunt of the money making responsibility, as they should because they were destined by our Maker to do so.  But, I guess my point is that, we are comfortable. We don't have to fear for our lives or our heads when we preach the Gospel...but do we even do that? Do we go out and share the best thing about us? No.  I know that I don't do what God has commanded.  We are commanded to go out into the world and spread the good news.  I want to become better at these things.  I want to tell the world about my Jesus! Don't you?  People in other countries die every day for their faith!  They knew before they died that they were headed to heaven.  Then why fear friends that might ridicule you?  What can that do to you? Nothing.  Ridicule is a sinful disease, that we all suffer from, but it doesn't hurt our souls.  Neither does DEATH.  Death is the passing of the body, and the soul returns to either Heaven or Hell. Where do you want to be?  I bet I can guess! HEAVEN!!!!! But lets work on overcoming that lump of pride of that Fear of man and step out and Fly.  Not Crawl, God made us to fly.  So lets do it!
