Ashamed or Not

“Fear not for you shall not be ashamed.” Is. 54:4

When my grandchildren get a treat they were told not to get, and I catch them doing it, their eyes are cast down in shame. That’s how it is. We do something wrong and we feel ashamed. But what about when we do something right?

Many people feel embarrassed or ashamed to do the right thing. Telling others of Jesus’ love we fear rejection or being thought weird. In essence we feel ashamed. Jesus felt shame, too. When He hung on the cross the Bible says He endured the cross and despised the shame. But now He sits at the right hand of the Father. Any shame we endure at the hands of men for speaking of Christ our Savior, He assures us will pass away and we shall eternally be unashamed in His presence.

Dear Father, Thank You that we need not fear the shame of men for bearing Christ’s name. Amen.
