Satan wants us to be worried about looking silly. God wants us to live with confidence! It might seem like confident people are the people who know how to do everything well. As though being confident meant that you knew you would never make a mistake. But it’s almost exactly the opposite! Confidence doesn’t come from never looking silly, it comes from knowing that it’s OK to look a little silly. If you’re not willing to try something that you’re not good at, then you’ll never get good at anything! Whether it’s something good, but not that important, like dancing, or something incredibly important, like sharing your faith, we only improve through practice. Live your life and serve God with confidence.
