Convicted

As I’ve gotten older I have started to sing less and less. For some reason I feel embarrassed to sing in front of others especially worship it’s something I’ve been struggling with yeh past few months. Seeing groups come and go and just not care about embarrassment and putting their full selves out there for Jesus has just inspired me so much. Tonight we had a worship service with the racers and at first I was just sitting watching everyone else worship I just felt convicted to put my full self out there and give everything to God so I started singing but I felt that God wanted more from me. I stepped fully out of my comfort zone and stood up and just gave everything to God and as I stiff up I just felt a huge weight fall off my shoulders and I just felt free. It was so freeing to know that there was no judgment or embarrassment and that I don’t have to fear because I am glorifying God not others. A verse that really stuck out to me as we were worshipping was Psalm 56:3-4“When I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?”

‭‭It just really reminded me that I can put all my trust in God and there is no reason to fear man or fear embarrassment because if it is from him there is no embarrassment.
