ONLY LOUDER
Today's reading: Matthew 20-22
"The crowd told them to be quiet, but they only shouted louder, Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!" Matthew 20:31 NLT
I know what the world is telling us, Christian brother and sister...
Be quiet. Be tolerant. Be careful not to overstep. Be able to support your beliefs in a laboratory. Be perfect if you're going to claim Christianity.
Are you doing what they've asked...or are you only getting louder?
Louder in how you love the unlovable?
Louder in your beliefs, even if you don't say a word?
Louder in your godly disciplines, when no one notices or cares or thinks along the same lines you think?
Louder in your faith which you yourself cannot entirely understand but know that you know that you know?
Is what the world is telling you making you shrink down or speak up?
