Right now,I am reading the book Rachel's Tears,It is the story and journal entry's of Rachel Joy Scott,one of the girls killed in the Columbine shooting on April 20,1999.I came across this part of her journal that really stuck out to me:
"I am not going to apologize for speaking the name of Jesus,
I am not going to justify my faith to them,
and I am not going to hide the light that God has put in me.
If I have to sacrifice everything...I will."
That reminded me of the verses:
According to my earnest expectation and my hope,that in nothing I shall be ashamed,but that with all boldness,as always,so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body,whether it be by life,or by death.~Philippians 1:20
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ:for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth;to the Jew first,and also to the Greek.~Romans 1:16
Let's not be ashamed,let's proclaim it to everyone...
I just saw this book on my mom's bookshelf today and was thinking maybe I should read it sometime. Let me know how it is!!
