Stand Out

Again last night I was working on studying for my nature program and listening to random music. I heard a song that encapsulates my passion. I have been hearing about a Christian singer called Britt Nicole, but not heard much of her music. Last night I heard “The Lost Get Found”.
Hello my friend
I remember when you were
So alive with your wide eyesT
hen the light that you had in your heart was stolen
Now you say that it ain't worth stayin'
You wanna run but you're hesitatin'
I'm talkin' to me

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out'
Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found
So when you get the chance
Are you gonna take it?

There's a really big world at your fingertips
And you know you have the chance to change it
There's a girl on the streets, she's cryin'
There's a man whose faith is dyin'
Love is calling you

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out'
Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found

Why do we go with the flow
Or take an easier road?
Why are we playin' it safe?
Love came to show us the way
Love is a chance we should take
I'm movin' out of the way

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out'
Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out'
Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found

So when you get the chance
Are you gonna take it?
There's a really big world at your fingertips
And you know you have the chance to change it


During Bible Study last night John Lyman was sharing about how the word Christian in the original language meant “little Christ”. It was a name given to those who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ and sought to be like Him.
The question was then raised; if my neighbors had seen Christ in action and then seen me…would they have thought to call me a “Christ” Sadly I am not sure that they would have.
Then that night I found the afore mentioned song, which speaks of living the faith you have in a way that others can see it. That is my encouragement to you, live in such a way that others will look at you and see Christ.
We live in a world of dying people who desperately need the Lord. Can you honestly say that you have sought to tell others about the Lord? Or that you have sought to encourage others to a closer walk with the Lord? You may feel inadequate to tell others about Him, however even if you only know that the Lord Jesus died for your sins; you know more than many.
I guess today my thoughts center around the hope I have, and my desire to share it with others :) Sometimes admittedly I feel like I am wasting my time at college. I want to tell others and help…and I want to do it NOW! I am impatient and I know it. Three years till I will be trained to go….I am so excited.

Though Him,
