Persecution

"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."

Acts 1:8

I have been thinking a lot lately about the persecuted church. Imagine, living in fear that your children or husband might be ripped from you, tortured and murdered...all because they profess the name of Christ as ultimate truth. We should be on our knees in intercession for these brothers and sisters that daily face such attacks. How dare we even consider not bringing up his name in order not to offend. It is in the face of true persecution that one's true character and passion for the Savior is revealed. How much do I love Him?
