Why are you afraid to stand out?

Modern Christians hope to save the world by being like it, but it will never work. The church's power over the world springs out of her unlikeness to it, never from her integration into it.  -A. W. Tozer

I challenge you to examine every area of your life and see how well it lines up with God's Word. Does it look more like God's way or the world's way? Are you choosing a way because it is what everyone else is doing? Are you afraid to stand out? Do you look differently? Sound differently? Live differently? Truly believing God's Word makes us stand out more and more from this world. 

The more we stand out for God, the more powerful our witness for Him will be. The more we look like Jesus, the more the world will hate us and the more our enemy will come after us. I'd rather really live by dying for Jesus than die and not having really lived for Him.

May God give us the courage to be obedient to His truths in this tragic, critical, and dangerous hour in which we live. -A. W. Tozer
