And it doesn’t matter if you get praised or not. It doesn’t matter if you get “likes” or not. It doesn’t matter if 100 people support it or if it’s just one. You keep doing what God told you to do. You keep going. You keep living out what He’s called you to do in your life in this season. Today, lack of support doesn’t change God’s instructions. Too many times you look around you, seeing who’s cheering on you, who’s liking and loving you, and God isn’t focused on that. He is focused on your obedience. He’s focused on what He told you. He’s focused on what He sent the Holy Spirit to tell you. Why? Because what He said has a purpose. His instructions are connected to a greater purpose. They’re connected to your intended targets. They’re connected to other people and places. They’re connected to the Kingdom. And contrary to your belief, it’s not about you. Nor is it about your feelings. What God has you doing is about your development. He’s developing you, beloved. He’s making you stronger, tougher, wiser, able to withstand, more discerning, more compassionate, more generous, more loving, more fruitful, more productive so that you can be the light and vessel He’s called you to be in this world. So you can be His beacon of truth, the salt in the earth. But you can’t salt anything if you quit. You can’t be a light if you stop because you don’t get any applause. Your applause comes from Jesus. It’s comes from the Father. They are cheering you on. They are so very proud of you. They are your constant cheering squad. They the one who supports you. Let their approvals and their cheers be enough to sustain and keep you going strong today. In them, you got this. Remember that.
