Transparency

I was talking with Abby the other day about how being transparent has become a great ministry for me, and it’s really been a surprising journey.

See, it wasn’t always this easy.  I used to struggle a lot, thinking that God wanted me to share my story with people and be transparent, but I’m an introvert.  There were many prayers that sounded, “Why God?, why me?”.

It’s hard to break down my pride and share my story about how God is fixing a messed up guy like me. 

But it’s the best thing I can do.

Last week wasn’t the first time that someone was able to relate to my story and because of that come back to Jesus.  The more I move along in this life, the more I realize that God is in control and my past is not completely unique.

That other people struggle with porn too.

That other people doubt.

That other people lack confidence.

And it’s all because of Jesus that I can move past these things.

I must share what Jesus has done for me.  And I’m on fire about it.

“We must go

Live to feed the hungry

Stand beside the broken

We must go.”
