Canada. . .A Blessed Nation

Some days I have a lot of time to think . . .which can both be beneficial and un beneficial!!! What I want to write about today is beneficial. We live in a blessed nation. . .we live in freedom. We can walk where we want, dress how we want, eat what we want, work where we want, and most important we are free to worship when and where we want. Are we in danger when we go to church? Are we in great danger when we spread the word? We have this freedom yet we still quiver at the thought of showing Christ or sharing Christ outside of a church building. . .outside of our comfort zone. I think of the disciples and how they moved out of their comfort zones to follow Jesus and spread the gospel. I'm sure there were many times they wished they could just stay back or avoid any situation where the love of God was spread, but they didn't. They remained faithful to Jesus and continued to follow His footsteps. God is still moving and we need to continue to follow. . .whether it be in a nation like Canada or a nation where Christianity is looked down on. I believe God wants every nation to be a blessed nation. . .and I believe that this will happen as men and women of faith follow the footsteps laid out before them by the Father. Never take for granted the nation we live in. . .but at the same time, be in prayer for the nations that need Him.
