Having it easy has created softness

I am going to post something without my wife Laurie proofing so if there are mistakes it is all my fault. This past Wednesday we had a guy named Bishop from Nigeria share with our midweek group. He was great. He was not flashy but was simply a matter of fact type of person. His passion for Jesus was undeniable. He shared about how pastors' in Nigeria were dying for the cause of Christ. It was very moving. As he shared about how they died and how cruel it was, he was unfazed, because of these pastor's deaths the gospel went forward. He said it never fails when someone dies for Christ people come to know the Savior. He lives it everyday. I worry about money, food, and a whole list of things that are so unimportant. He has no worries because he has settle the issue of life and death. We here in America have it so good that it has made us soft. We don't say anything because we are afraid of what people might think or say. We never have to worry about someone causing us bodily harm. We should be bolder than ever because there are no restrictions on us but it has created the exact opposite in us as Americans. Wake up Randy to the realities of our soft church. Lord, help us to be bolder and more faithful to what YOU want for us. If it is tough I am ready. Help me to keep the eye on the prize not this world. What do you think?
