Be who God called you to be. Live for the an audience of ONE.

But I can please God

Although we're made right with God by faith, and not by works, the effectiveness of our prayers is often tied to the holiness of our lives.

From the outside, everything looked good. But God doesn't look at the outside.

God loves you so much that he's searching the wild, dark night to save you. He's moving all his furniture and tearing up the carpet simply to reach you. God is watching every moment of every day, waiting for you to return home, and when you're yet only a dot on the horizon, he'll sprint toward you, his arms flung wide and a joyous grin lighting his face.

God loves to use people whom others believe are unqualified.

As you’ll recall, what you believe — about who you are and who God is — determines how you behave. If you believe everybody is going to criticize you, you’ll behave cautiously. If you believe you’re probably going to fail, you’re going to venture out tentatively. If, however, you believe that the one true Lord God is calling you, empowering you, leading you, and equipping you, then you will live boldly. Why? Because boldness is behavior born of belief.
