Risky Faith Living

Have you been reflecting on the story of Esther this week?
I keep thinking about her risky faith living?  She was willing to obey - to put her life on the line?
I have to keep asking myself, where am I willing to die to myself for the sake of God and others?
Am I willing to say sorry? Ask for forgiveness? serve?
Am I willing to say something about Jesus? Ask for others opinions on faith? Witness?
Am I willing to help someone in need? Even when I don't want to? or I'm too busy?

I remember that God has prepared in advance the good works He wants us to do - Now he asks for us to step up with some Risky Faith Living and Trust Him 

He did not give us a Spirit of timidity -  but of Power, Love & Self Discipline 2Tim 1:7

I like the last one on the list - the Holy Spirit even helps us to be self disciplined!!  I need to partner with him to make sure this risky living is part of my priorites in life, and even have some plan to do it!!!   
mmmmm   food for thought!!!
