St. Paul's Epistle to the Romans Chapter One, Verse Sixteen

The Gospel Message of Christ, the power of salvation. We are told to go forth and spread the word, yet at times it seems hard as we look to the pressures of the world, to the potential embarrassments or whatever else it may be. But with that, we must realize that regardless of the difficulties, regardless of the challenges we have the love and guidance of a loving Father that gives us strength even amidst the most trying of times. Be not ashamed, stand tall for that precious Gospel message and the power it has within it, for it is truly the power of salvation
