Be Bold

2 Timothy 1:7
"For the Spirit of God gave does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and discipline."

"We need to be bold.  When we allow people to intimidate us, we neutralize our effectiveness to God.  The power of the Holy Spirit can help us overcome our fear of what some might say or do to us, so we can continue to do God's work."

"Power, love, and self-discipline are available to us because the Holy Spirit lives in us."
- Life Application Study Bible

I have to keep remembering this scripture all the time, because I can let people intimidate me all the time, and when that happens I get down on myself and get upset with myself for letting people steal my joy!
