Taking Up Boldness (Johnson)

Published: March 10, 2021, 10 a.m.

Seems like there is so much to be afraid of in our world. We\u2019re afraid of our inner-cities. We\u2019re afraid of our suburbs. We\u2019re afraid of pandemics. We\u2019re afraid of a tanking economy. We\u2019re afraid of climate change. We\u2019re afraid of so many things and what brings fear our way is different for everyone! So it\u2019s very comforting to know that as a follower of Jesus, we can in fact, by the power of the Holy Spirit, be a people who are \u201cTaking Up Boldness\u201d. Now we\u2019ll still fear things, both temporal and eternal, but in Christ and through Christ we can give up fear and instead, remember our loving Lord has us firmly in His almighty hands every single day. Today we remember that our Christian life is one of daily \u201cTaking Up Boldness\u201d.
