1 Peter 2:9 "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." Nothing is more precious than God's calling on your life!

When you find out that someone doesn’t think you’re as great as you think you are, your pride turns to fear. When you let fear take its grip, your fears lead to insecurity. When you live in insecurity, you create relational trouble everywhere you go, and it destroys your life.
