I grew up in a household of professional Multi-level Marketers. My mom and step-dad were big wigs in networking and had a statement they would tell new people all the time, fake it till you make it. They would encourage people to start acting like they were living out the dreams of there life even though they had yet to accomplish them. Act like you have got everything all together and that everything is perfect and people will want what you have.
Personally I am tired of putting on this fake act that I have got it all together, because I don’t and probably never real. It is more tiring faking it than it is making it because you are always trying to be someone you are not. This whole idea that the pastor is or has to be perfect is ridiculous and I am definitely not perfect. I don’t have it all together, probably never will but I am trying to become better everyday.
The reality is that when I get focused on trying to be this perfect person I am trying to please people instead of trying to please the one who matters most, GOD. I am making this year the year that I stop living for an audience of many and start living for an audience of ONE.
Are you tired of the act?
