My sis Bub is especially gifted at speaking...especially when she is passionate about her subject. In a few moments, she is going to take the stage at our General Conference meeting in front of thousands. Even though she's good at it, she's nervous, and rightly so.
"No one is able to take this stand for Jesus Christ who is not totally compelled by the majesty of His power. It is the only thing that matters...Paul said that he was gripped by the love of God and that is why he acted as he did. People could perceive him as mad or sane-he did not care. There was only one thing he lived for-to persuade people of the coming judgement of God and to tell them of 'the love of Christ.' This total surrender to 'the love of Christ' is the only thing that will bear fruit in your life. And it will always leave the mark of God's holiness and His power, never drawing attention to your personal business."
-Oswald Chambers
"The love of Christ compels us..." 2 Corinthians 5:14
Praying for you Bub,
