Crazy People

I learned the most interesting thing at church, something that I sort of knew but definitely never implement in my own life. Hopefully that will change, starting immediately.

I know I, along with most people, care too much about what others think. I try to not let it get to me, and usually it doesn't, but nevertheless I care. And often times I base my actions off of what is most socially acceptable.

That, however, is not God acceptable. He wants you to be foolish in His name. Check out the following verses which, I'll be honest, I took straight from this weekends sermon. Thank you Tierce and The Woodlands Church.

"God chose things the world considers foolish in order to shame those who think they are wise. And He chose things that are powerless to shame those who are powerful." —1 Corinthians 1:27

"...I celebrate before the Lord. Yes, and I am willing to look even more foolish than this, even to be humiliated in my own eyes!" —2 Samuel 6:21-22

Do it. Get a little crazy. Act a little spacey. Anything, as long as it glorifies God. Chances are people will envy your carefree nature more than they think you look dumb, and you'll be able to tell them you're freed by your awesome Father.
