Bold to say no to wrong things at the right time.
It was the first day at college. Pre final year students formed a gang to rag the new comers. He was one among them. His mind was nagging him all the time.
He did not want to do any of that. But did not want to be alone. The 'raggers' started their work. He felt too guilty. Finally he came to a decision. This was too much to bear. He stood up against them.
He said they were wrong and asked them to stop. Though shaking terribly inside he was able to influence a couple of people who shared his thoughts. They stood together and managed to stop a few students from getting bugged.
God wants us to do the same. Being bold enough to say no to wrong things even when the majority does it is what the world needs now. Even if it makes a difference to one soul it is worth it.
Boldness doesn't require physical strength or financial power. It just requires a good heart to stop wrong things from happening.
