Ezra 3:3 GWT - "So they rebuilt the altar on its original site, though they were afraid of the people in the neighboring regions. They sacrificed burnt offerings on it to the Lord every morning and evening."
Even though the people were afraid of the the countries around them, Jeshua and the priest rebuilt the altar of the Lord just as Moses had instructed it to be built. They knew that they had a strong God. They wanted to pay honor to God with their burnt offerings both night and day.
We too may be afraid of the people around us. What will they say if they see me being Christian? What will they do when they see I love Jesus and God? We should not be afraid of the "countries" around us. We have a strong God who watches over us...His faithful servants. You never know whose life might be changed because we trust and showed our true self...our Christian selves in a world of muck and mire?
