Jesus tells us to share the good news, so share this verse with someone who needs it today, okay? Please. This is a threat. Okay, I have way too... what is wrong with me? Oh my gosh. Okay. Should I restart? No, I'm not going to restart. All right, listen. Galatians 1:10. Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings or of God? Stop worrying about what other people think about you, rather worry about what God says about you and what God thinks about you. This was so hard because I wrestled with this for years. I literally suffered because I was constantly looking at comments on social media. I was letting people rule my life. I was letting people like dictate how I felt that day because they said something mean. And it took years and years of just working at this, but honestly, what really helped me was taking those thoughts captive, making them obedient to Christ, and just saying, you know what, the only reason why I get to experience life and life to the full is because of Jesus. The only reason why I'm going to experience heaven is because of Jesus. So, why am I so worried about what earthly people think about me? Because no one knows what happens in my secret time. No one knows what happens in my secret place. Only God knows. Only God knows. So, worry about what Jesus says about you. Listen, I stopped caring about this because my dad and I were talking about this last night. There was a study that was done where this guy goes into this party with this ugly sweater, right? And he walks through this party for like an hour, and he's like, oh my gosh, I'm so embarrassed, like I want to leave, like this is the worst, like, right? He's like, I can't, all these people are looking at me, I know it. And they pull these other people aside, and they're like, hey, did you see that guy with that super ugly Christmas sweater? And they're like, no, I have no idea. Like, that's the reality of it. No one remembers, and it's just because we're all in our own worlds. We all have our own things that are going on. We're all fighting our own silent battles. And I think it's so important to just keep our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. Because those who endure to the end will have eternal life. And those who worry about the approval of human beings, rather worrying about the approval of God, that's where the value is. That's where the eternal prize is. So, worry about what Jesus says about you. He calls you so many wonderful things. He literally calls you fearfully and wonderfully made. And he loves you so much, okay? Jesus loves you. I love you. Amen:)
