God desires for you to reach your full potential.
You are not the message. You are the messenger!
Believers, trust God to be at work in you, and in those around you. Offer grace to one another as you seek out what God is trying to do through you. Encourage each other. When we all, coming from very different places, can come together with a similar focus of reaching others for Christ, God will be glorified! Amen?
