Challenging Quote

I have no more personal friends at school. But you know what? I am not going to apologize for speaking the name of Jesus. I am not going to justify my faith to them, and I am not going to hide the light that God has put into me. If I have to sacrifice everything, I will. I will take it. If my friends have to become my enemies for me to be with my best friend, Jesus, then that’s fine with me.

- Rachel Scott, Columbine martyr

I admire a testimony like this from anyone...it is more impressive when it comes from a young person.

Quote: I am not going to justify my faith to them

Seems to me this is the propblem with many of us until we get a grip on this concept: we do not have to justify our faith to [i]anyone[/i]. And i would reckon it may put these folks in a fix when they know they cannot rattle us which requires the power of the Holy Spirit strengthening us.

Thanks for posting this.
