Standing up to Speak Out

On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’” (John 7:37-38 ESV)
Jesus could not help but Stand Up and Speak up about Who He was and why HE had come.  Though most of the time he, like other Rabbis would sit to speak,Jesus at times stood up and said something so significant it took everyone aback.  It was like being at a business meeting and have someone who never says anything stand and say something profound.  As  shy and quiet as we may be, God offers us all opportunities to take a stand on what we believe.  May we stand and speak well of Him.
