Awareness is defined as: the state of being conscious, knowing (either by perception or by means of information)…
We have to see / be conscious of the opportunity before we can step out boldly and seize it. I was recently in the market and like clock work three individuals presented three opportunities – first there was a guy talking about all the corruption in India – then there was a lady who talked about all her fear – then another lady who mentioned her struggle with health problems. During moments like those, by being aware of the opportunity and what God might want to do or say, we have can proceeded to step out boldly and speak for Him.
The problem arises when we cease to be aware of what God might want to do through us, and we allow information to come and go without doing anything with it. May we all be more aware of the opportunities around us and answer them with holy boldness!
