I found this picture somewhere months ago, but I came across it again today.

not living up to expectations, being a people pleaser and constantly comparing myself to others is something I’ve struggled with for a long time. but the more I’ve grown in my relationship with Jesus & learned more about who HE is, I quickly realized who He’s created ME to be.

I don’t want to be known for my looks.
I don’t want to be known for my outward appearance.
I don’t want to be known by what I accomplish.
I don’t want to be known for what I have or don’t have.

I want to be known for how I loved others like Jesus would.
I want to be known for my heart, not the way I look.
I want to be known for spreading His name, not my own.
I want to be known as someone who is always willing to help & serve those in need.
I want to make HIM known through what I do/say, not myself.

In my years of being a Christ follower, one of the most important things I’ve learned is this: I’m not walking on this earth to be remembered, I’m here to make my Heavenly Father known. I’m here to display His love to whoever I come across. THAT is my goal. not to impress people by my looks & accomplishments, but to change lives by showing His love through my actions & words.
