Today, my team got to worship with the people at Agape House. We sang in two different languages, all worshiping the same King. It honestly gave me chills. We also got the opportunity to share our testimonies and things that God has been doing in our lives. So I want to share what I shared at Agape House and something God has been teaching me.
Most of my life I placed my value and worth in what other people thought of me. A lot of the time, I felt like I was performing. This fear of man caused me to miss so many opportunities to share the Gospel, at the expense that I would lose my reputation. I cared more about being likable than I did about what God says is true about me. The more I found my identity in Christ, the more I realized that at the end of my life, other people’s fleeting opinions of me are not going to matter. What will matter is who the Holy Spirit got to touch through me. I was listening to a song the other day by Hillsong UNITED (So Will I), and one of the lyrics really convicted me. It said “I can see your heart in a billion different ways, every precious one a child you died to save. If you gave your life to love them so will I.” If God died and took on the sins of every person good and bad, the least I can do is show love to people and spread truth.
