The closer I've gotten to God, the more I've learnt that in His kingdom we're to serve not to be served. I was socially awkward for a very long time but, the more time I've spent with the Lord, the more easier I've found it to speak to others, especially at church ❤. Like He said to Moses and all the other prophets, He will empower us as we do His will.
just as Jesus said, He came to serve, not to be served! amen!! ☺i relate so much, because i was so socially awkward too... and sometimes i think i still am ugh. but we serve such a faithful God! He is with us 🥹
It was once said to me that in order to get where you need to be things might get uncomfortable and that you need to get comfortable being uncomfortable. Of course, this isn’t meaning being uncomfortable in the sense of conviction, if you feel uncomfortable because of that obviously you should heed it lol. But basically what I’m trying to say is that sometimes as introverts we have to step out of our comfort zone and crazily enough, you can get comfortable doing that. I speak from experience. Growing up, I was always very introverted and very shy. I’m still an introvert, but now I’m no longer uncomfortable because of the things that used to bother me, such as speaking in front of people or being on camera. You are right, we were made the way we are and we don’t need to think we need to become extroverts because we don’t. Trust God’s nudges in various directions and know that even if something feels uncomfortable now, it won’t always be that way. You have to start somewhere. Just remember God is always with you no matter how intimidating something might seem. A good start to conquering that intimidation is praying for peace and confidence before whatever it is comes along❤
AMENNNNN!! THIS comment is so powerful because it's a glimpse into your testimony and how God has moved in your life! GOD IS SO GOOD!!!! i hope to get to that place where you are where you are no longer uncomfy, thank you for sharing and for letting ME know it is entirely possible 🥺🤎
Girl I feel everything you said. You’re doing great. As a fellow Christian introvert, I am in the season of stepping out in confidence of who God has made and called me to be. It feels good to realize that two things can be true. When I was younger, I used to always try to go against the grain of who I was and it never worked. But God! He is now showing me that He intentionally made me this way AND I can still serve Him and His people by being willing as you said. You hit the nail on the head about not going based off our preferences. I wrote that exact thing in my journal last month when I was spiraling about serving the kids at VBS lol.
GIRRRRRLLL i still feel this- it is so so so so soooo difficult to fight your innate urge to be alone and not socialize but like you said, you can do both- our design is not a mistake, but it is up to us to choose how we show up! 🥹 also God told me this weekend, and maybe this word is for you too, that He did not design us to be hidden- that if He wanted us to not be seen by others, He wouldn't have created us so. so our introversion is great in terms of intimacy with God but in social settings, when we run, we hide God's glory and light sometimes 🥹 I HOPE THIS MEANS YOU ARE SERVING AT VBS 👀 tell me all about it when you are finished! 🫶🏽 socializing is hard, but with kids?? whew, double whammy lololo
As a fellow introvert girly lol ☺️💁🏾♀️ our beautiful God uses me boldly as a evangelist 😮💨😄 so yes he will use you for his kingdom and glory by anyway means necessary 💕🙏🏾🙌🏾
our walk with Christ is so so much bigger than just ourselves & that includes us introverts lol!! that stewarding your alone time tip is KEY! & i love the serve as you tip because God will work through us just as we are hehe 🤍
girrrrlllll, the stewarding your alone time is HARD. still fully figuring out how it is that we fully recharge, you know? but yes, God still has to work through us, we have to work around our introversion so He can still move miracles to His people through us!
i love your new filming format and i just love this video it’s reaffirming and encouraging for the introverts and i think just a great lesson on how our differences isn’t at a detriment to the body/Christ bc we can still be used by him no matter what!
thank you sweet girl! i feel like im still figuring out my format tbh but it means alot that you are rocking with this direction 🥹 Amen though, i used to think i was a broken part of the kingdom because speaking to people was just not my thing, but exactly what you said- we are not a detriment! we are used by God still ☺
I relate to this so much as a fellow introvert, I wouldn’t say I had a problem with it as much until I realised that I felt it was limiting me in some ways to do the things of God for example I sing but singing in front of people makes me very uncomfortable and idk how to really overcome it. Thank you for creating this video though I feel seen🥰
hi jasmine! 😊 thank YOU for being here! 🫶🏽 it means so much to even get the chance to empower you in our Father and i pray over you and your journey, wherever you are 🥹
hiii girl! 🥹 you guys keep making me blush, goodness. you are too kind! thank you for being here 🫶🏽 it is truly all God and i am so grateful for YOUUUU. you encourage me more than you know despite the uncomfy part of this channel 🥹
Hey sweet sister in Christ online, it is still hard for me to get out of my comfort zone. I have a job as a Behavior Interventionist, and something that has been difficult is speaking to parents, and although I am good with kids, and love kids, talking to parents is very hard. Idk why, I also was given opportunities to speak to the youth, but I have said I just couldn't because my biggest fear is public speaking. (I shaked really bad all over my body just presenting at class once in front of everyone) I am not proud of this, and I do want to honor God, I want to please him, but It's just hard. Can you please pray for me.
hi sweet girl! 🥹 my heart is with you!!! i work as a software engineer and even though i work from home, everytime i have to lead a meeting for my team, i am literally shaking, i sweat profusely and i cannot speak straight for the life of me.. so i am with you!!! lets pray for each other, okay? we WILL overcome this, it will not hold us!!! your fear cannot have you, you are for Jesus and Jesus only 🫶🏽🫶🏽 keep breathing, keep trying and gove yourself grace for trying!! it will not be something that is gone overnight, God is slowly working with you and soon it will be nothing- you may still dread it but you will reign over it because God does not fail. the battle is already won! i proclaim that over us both! 🫶🏽 and i will pray for you personally 🥺 also girl, be proud!!! you are still doing it and doing it well. always applaud yourself, im applauding you and rooting for you ☺️
🤣 it reeaaallly feels like yesterday when you think about it 🤣 in college, i had an extroverted friend who i avoided like the plagued because 5 days felt like 5 months to her and so she wanted to hang out ALL THE TIME 🥹 i love her so much but goodness, i needed space and recharge time haha. it really put it into perspective for me though, like.... there's really people who don't need that recharge and in fact, recharge from other people.... whereas we get drained more from that. it's such an interesting dynamic! God is intentional but wow, that is so fascinating 😭 anyway, thank you for being here 🫶🏽 happy you are here!
hi! literally same, it is so empowering and inspiring to see the youth living for God :) i am the same age as you 🥰 23 and loving God. cheers to you for being young and giving your life to Him! 👏🏽

the more you spoke, the more I realized that selflessness/self-sacrifice is what Christianity is all about!
hi baby 🫶🏽 yes.... the humility this faith takes in giving up the self is hard but it's the very core of Jesus' actions and life. 🥹
