Thanks Pastor, so true everyday I strive to reveal the Christ in me through Love. I know it's not easy, but I know he's working on me. "But I have to be me, the best me who God created, In Jesus Name
Awesome & enlightening. Takes entirely TOO much time, effort and energy to pretend to be something or someone you are not. Was on that very same topic with the youths in the Life Skills session....self-image/self-esteem....knowing who You are
Amen.As a believer we have to be real with ourselves and real with others.We have to allow ourselves to be transparent so others will see the light in us and want to know more about Jesus.I agee with you wholeheartedly when you say that authencity is the key.It's not about religion,it's about a relationship.I have been attending your church for awhile now and each day I step inside i'm stepping with expectency.Stepping with the expectency that God is going intercede through spoken word or chorus ministry;expecting to learn something I could apply to my life that will make me better.Each time leaving better then I arrived.As you stated,we all have flaws and things we need to work on,but with God's help we will get through.For I have accepted that I am a working progress, and will forever be while I'm here on this earth.For I am grateful for where i've been and where I am today.Jesus is REAL:)
