I know that because pastors get up on stage every weekend and talk about the Word of God that everyone thinks that we are the most secure people in the world and that nothing really hurts us. We are these indestructible forces who need to perform up to par week in and week out. We can never say the wrong thing, do the wrong thing, in essence we have to be perfect.
One of the things that I struggle with is that I hope that every weekend that people like what I communicate. I determine for some reason that the amount of praise I get determines my value. I don’t know why I think this way, but actually I do. The reason why is that just like most people out there, I am insecure. I allow my perceived value and worth to be determined by others. I know that it looks like I have it all together because I talk about the issues of everyday life and how to handle them according to God’s Word, but the reason I know how to handle them is cause I am going through them myself. I am not indestructible, perfect or got it all together. I am just normal and trying to figure it all out. I am self conscience and struggle with not having it all together.
Sunday’s message was God’s Message from God’s Word. He promised that His Word would NOT RETURN VOID. IT WILL ACCOMLISH THAT WHICH I SENT IT TO DO!!! Keep being faithful to speak His Word, It is being used POWERFULLY in my life and I’ve been sharing it throughout the week to those who need to hear it too!!! The Holy Spirit will guide our APPLYING IT PERFECTLY IN ALL SITUATIONS. s.t.o.p. SAVOR THE OBSERVABLE PRESENCE.
