I grew up in a Christian home. My mother was a minister, sisters were in choir and my brother was an usher. But me? I was the only different one. I never liked going to church programs at all and sometimes when my mother asked me to go with her for evangelism, I would make excuses.
I was too ashamed of preaching the word, because I felt I was going to be mocked by my friends.
One day I went to church and the pastor started preaching and made reference to this scripture. Gosh! It pierced my heart and I felt so sorry for all the times I cared about what people said. I decided from that day to make a u-turn.
Today, I am more committed to church activities and it gives me joy letting people know about Christ.
I also serve in the children's department where I teach them the word.
Am so glad I found that scripture.
