Reputation must be sacrificed!

God is teaching me that I value my reputation too much. It is important for me to let it go. He has manufactured many circumstances in my life to make me feel like my reputation is ruined. This has made me realize that I care too much what other people think. I have discoverd how close God and I really are and although church attendance is important, it is not to be confused with our relationship with God. I am enjoying some of God's blessings right now. I could use a little rest.
