Trust God and Do What Is Right
It took some courage, but a Texas Girl Scout Troop helped nab a shoplifter while they were selling cookies at a Houston supermarket. From their table near the entrance, they watched a suspicious man wheel his shopping cart out the door and toward the curb. The girls were suspicious because none of the items were in bags and the man looked as if he were trying to sneak out. They alerted authorities who found $2000 in stolen merchandise in the man's possession -- not just groceries but small appliances and alcohol as well. "He was stealing a lot of stuff," said one girl. "We caught a bad guy."Sometimes while minding our own business throughout the course of a day, we're confronted with a challenge -- a wrong to right, a correction to make, a task to finish, or a soul to influence. Most people look the other way, apathetic or frightened. But remember that the word "bold" is a New Testament adjective for God's people; and the Lord expects us to be of "good courage."
Having faith will give us courage even when the challenge seems intimidating or the task seems impossible. We must always trust God and do what's right.

He is my strength, for I have none of my own.....God bless all who profess Him and stand up for what is pleasing to Him....
Nam, as long as you know what you are saying is right you don`t have to worry what other people think.. they have their right to chose what they want to feel and think. Just be true to yourself.
I too believe we should have courage to acknowledge God in our lives if we so believe in Him as I do and I know people who have commented do as they bodly proclaim it.. not sure if you do Nam as you didn`t say.
Have a lovely weekend everyone
