bobbers 'n wigglers

"bobbers 'n wigglers" is the odd stuff you find at the bottom of the tackle box. It's the blog accessory to The Baitstand. What is The Baitstand? A place where you can taste of the sweet salvation found in Israel's promised Savior, Yeshua Hamashiach, Jesus the Messiah.

Blessings from Rejection



After almost three years in Yeshua I am beginning to discover the boldness to speak up and speak out about Yeshua, knowing that those I speak to may reject me, not me but Yeshua in me. My skin is not yet such a tough rhino hide or perhaps my conviction is not so strong yet, that I do not feel a sting, not for my own sake, but for the tender and precious truth that falls to the ground unheeded. By now I'm past the point of returning to that safe demeanor that seeks only to make the people around me comfortable. I cause discomfort now.
With boldness comes rejection.

With rejection comes blessing.
Look at 1Peter 4:14:

"If you are insulted because of the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you."
I am privileged to be able to say that I HAVE FELT THAT SPIRIT OF GLORY RESTING ON ME!!!!
Please pray for these Jews who have recently rejected my words pointing them to the Gospel:
Sonya
Sheryl
Ruth

Jewish guy on the street.
