Sunday morning started with Michael Gormley who reminded us that, this weekend, we have heard about how we need to live fearlessly for Jesus. Maybe that has empowered you. Maybe you are ready and convicted to make a change in your life. Or, maybe you are nervous to return to your homes and families, and you are unsure about what life will look like now. Whatever way you are feeling, it is ok.
No matter what is going on in your mind and heart, God planned for you to be here this weekend at the conference, and He has done something within you. Even if you are not aware of it, God is moving within you. You might be tempted to pretend that has not happened. You might want to put on a mask and ignore the change within you. But Jesus is calling you to greatness. You are not called to a life of mediocrity. You are called to change the world, and the only thing that can truly change the world is the love of Jesus.
Embracing Fearlessness
We don’t have to be afraid in this journey because Jesus is with us. He will give you what you need to live for Him. We will have times that may be difficult, but they will be worth it. With Christ, we live fully alive. Anything outside of Christ is a cheap imitation with half-truths and direct lies. You were made for more than lies. You were made for life and life to the full.
Hold onto the knowledge that you have in who you are. In Whose you are. You are not what the world says. You are not what the consumerism and celebrities of the world try to convince you are. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. Not even death can prevail against you if you live in Christ. Remember, He has conquered the world and has conquered Hell.
We are made for Heaven. This is not our home – Heaven is our true home. But we need a Savior to get there. We need Jesus. If we surrender to Him, we have nothing to fear.
