Fight the good fight. Run into the core of the darkness in this world and fight against it. YOU have the power to change the world. God has bestowed upon you unfathomable talents and treasures that only you can use. You were fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Before your parents even thought of you, God did. He planned out every moment of your life. His plans for you are unimaginable. Believe in what you think you can't do. Because with God, all things are possible (Phil. 4:13) We rest in the hope and faith that He is always walking beside us. He alone gives us our joy and gladness. So go out into the world and take hold of things you never thought you could or should. Fight the fight, take hold of the courage that He can give you. Don't let the things of this world get in your way. You are so much more powerful than that. Don't let your age - young, old, or somewhere in between - get in the way either (1 Tim. 4:12). That probably seems incredibly overwhelming to go into all the world and change it. Start small. Where are you everyday? Where do you go throughout your day? At school? At work? Grocery store? Bank? This is one of the things that I am not even close to perfecting or even being comfortable with. As much as I love Jesus and follow Him, one of my biggest struggles I have is stepping out of my comfort zone to tell other people about Him. It is one of those things that is so much more easier said than done. I have prayed about it, meditated on it, and here is what I have come to find out: you need to start small. We are called to reach to all ends of the Earth and be disciples to all nations for Christ (Matthew 28:19). Make where you are everyday your mission field. If you start there, He will lead you to places and people that seemed so out of reach in the first place. Thanks for reading! *The video below is Bethel Live from For the Sake of the World
