This is for all my Inspiring Artist such as myself, I' m reminded of the scripture Mark 6:4-6 when Jesus tells us about Ministering where we live. You would think that since people know who you are you will get mass support, especially it being family and friends. Sometimes makes you wonder why is that. I thought of 3 things,
1. Ministry version of you verses what your family and friends know of you-
Family has been a part of our lives since we can remember. Some family members will support from a distance, while many will be offended at what your Ministry will entail. Some just won't believe that God can use you to do a mighty work. Either because of how you used to be or what they used to know about you. Know that Jesus experienced this first. They where astonished and some were offended because of him and the scripture he read out loud. They knew that Joseph was his earthly father, it was even said that his brothers and sisters were offended.
2. Authority And Power you will Display
Again we go back to man's idea of what your image displays. We as Christians are given power and authority by the Spirit of God through Jesus Christ. Jesus was known in his hometown as the son of a Carpenter. We all hold different occupations, we all have different upbringings. Some of us were well off some were poor. Because man can't discern hearts they don't realize What God has placed in you. God himself told Samuel that the heart is his main focus. God uses the ones that the world counts out the meek and lowly to give Power and Authority. Not to say he can't use those that are well off, but the meek and lowly heart is more open and receptive to Gods desires.
3. You will be taken to higher heights
