No Pressure
Many of us feel enormous pressure to be a “good Christians” and to share Jesus with others. But sometimes we need to take a step back and realize that God hasn’t abandoned us to fulfill this mission alone; He has equipped us through the Holy Spirit.
Note the phrase “Holy Spirit comes on you.” Naturally, nothing inside us moves us to share the gospel, but the power of Jesus inside of us compels us to share. What a powerful thing to realize that the pressure is not on us to do, but we are instead called to surrender to the Holy Spirit—and He’ll help us out!
With the gift of the Holy Spirit comes the promise that God will call us outside of our comfort zones. Jesus declares that we will be His witnesses in Jerusalem (for His audience, their homes) and in Samaria (a foreign place for His followers). But remember: He calls us not out of our own strength, but out of His strength. That takes the pressure off us—what freedom!
Prayer
Lord, what a gift You have given me: Your Holy Spirit! Whenever I feel incapable or afraid, help me remember that You are my strength.

But what does that actually look like? Be Bright is the fifth of five plans that will help guide you closer to Him and His glory.
