As a christian I find it hard at times to share the fact that I have Jesus in my heart or that my family and I attend church. I think it's from fear of rejection but we should be the least scared because we have Jesus on our side already. We win!!
With that being said, I was outside cleaning my truck the other morning after dropping kids off at school and my new neighbor came over to say Hello. We spoke about school and I decided to bring up our childrens ministry since she has kids that are my kids ages. She asked about our services and I thought she was just asking to be nice. Well about a hour ago I was sitting outside watching the kids playing hide and seek ( thank you Jesus for making it cool for the night so I could sit outside) and the neighbor comes outside again to check on her boys. I told her come over and have a seat while it's cool. She did and ended up asking me what time we were leaving for church in the morning. I told her I would wait for her in the morning so she could follow us in and not get so intimated since our church is so big. I know it can be very overwhelming.
I am so excited that I stepped out there and spread God's word. God was definately using me because I couldn't do it without Him. I have no strength and am not worthy.
Thank you Jesus for your mercy and love, without it I would be nothing.

Sometimes is seems so difficult to step out of our comfort zone, but taking that first step is always the hardest. Good for you!
I have always been scared to step out of the boat, and keep my eyes on the Lord. I get nervous too, and so ask the Lord to speak for me. You did a good thing. LOVE YA!!
