Paul’s advice to Timothy really hits home:

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline. So never be ashamed to tell others about our Lord.” – 2 Timothy 1:7-8.

When we commit fully to Jesus, letting go of fears about losing friends or influence, we embrace a spirit of power and love. This “all-in” attitude leads us to live boldly for Christ, unconcerned with seeking approval from others, and eager to share the gospel.

Remember, Christ made His sacrifice for us openly. Why should we live our faith in secret? The only approval we need is God’s, which we already have through Christ. Live in that empowerment, be true to yourself, follow His path, love God, show Gods love to others, and speak about Jesus with passion. Watch the incredible impact it will have on your life and those around you.

Unity in Christ,
