How amazing is it that the Gospel that Paul stood for was worthy enough for even the highest of ears in the world. Paul believed so much in His cause that he was not ashamed of it (Rom. 1:16) even before the most powerful man in the world.
In my life, internally, I struggle somedays with this. I tend to shy away from the truth, the cause, because I believe it might not be applicable or necessary or appropriate for a particular audience. I sometimes get intimidated and believe that the Gospel might not fit into a certain person's life...especially someone as important as Caesar....I mean the guys face was on every piece of currency in the world!
Lord, Break me of this..... Help me see the strength, the power (Rom 1:16) of your Gospel. May I realize as Paul did that it is not only a great story, but it is Your Story, Your life changing, World shaping story that is nothing short of the most important story ever told.....no matter who is listening.
