9 One night the Lord spoke to Paul in a vision: “Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent. 10 For I am with you, and no one is going to attack and harm you, because I have many people in this city.”
One thing I took from today is we should be sharing God's word whenever possible even if it appears fruitless to us. Maybe Todd's open sharing about his faith with say Mary is the opening act for someone else down the road to share with her and maybe the combination of these efforts God uses to bring someone else to know him. Do not be silent, he has many people around us on his side more than we know and he can use each of us.

I think that's true. Plant the seed...I've heard said. I also like the line in that verse that talks about having many people in the city. To me that means that there is strength in the number of people that are following God. The quieter we are about our own faith, the less people will know that we will be there to back them up if needed. Make sense?
