The Witness Of Madalyn Murray O’Hair
Thursday, January 2, 2025
Children of Wrath
The famous atheist Madalyn Murray O'Hair, while speaking at a college in Ohio, denigrated all clergy and ministers, ridiculed believers, mocked those who trusted in prayer, and labeled all people of faith as 'stupid.' At the end of the meeting, a girl spoke up. With a soft, compassionate voice she said, "Ms. O'Hair, I am so happy you came to speak to all of us tonight. We thank you for showing all of us what an atheist is. Now, in turn, we must ever be grateful for your visit because now and forever we have been strengthened in our Christian beliefs by listening to you tonight. We really feel sorry for you. I thank you because I know you have strengthened my faith..." Ms. O'Hair seemed at a loss for words. Atheism might testify against God but atheists only testify to Him. They show us that without God, there's no real hope, assurance, comfort, trust, purpose, meaning and love. So, how much more than that must you who affirm God, all the more boldly bear Him witness. Let your light shine and be bold. God lives, and even atheists bear Him witness.

Today's Mission
Today, boldly bear witness that God is and who He is in your life.

Galatians 5:22
King James Version
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
But what happens when we live God’s way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard—things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely.

Legalism is helpless in bringing this about; it only gets in the way. Among those who belong to Christ, everything connected with getting our own

HAVE A BLESSED DAY AND WEEKEND!
