Psalm
116:14
I
will pay my vows unto the Lord now in the presence of all his people.
The
teacher asked the class if anyone went to church. At first, no one raised his
hand. Greg went every week, but he wasn't sure he wanted the rest of his class
to know. There were some people who might laugh. Then someone raised his hand.
Others followed, and soon Greg was surprised to see that over half his class
attended church regularly. He raised his hand, a little ashamed that he hadn't
had the nerve to raise it earlier.
We
need to be proud of our faith. What God has done for us is a miracle, and we
should want the whole world to know. Take every opportunity to let others know
what you believe. Pay your vows to the Lord in front of other people, and be amazed
at how much good it does.
Prayer:
Forgive me when I keep my faith to myself, Lord. You have given me so much, and
I waste it when I refuse to share it with others. Teach me to proudly honor
You. Amen.
