God gave me an awesome reminder the other day, everything I do is not for me, not to prove I am good enough, it is for Him. For example, I don't teach for me, to prove I am a good teacher, etc., I teach for Hime, because He wants to touch these kids and impart knowledge on them. Building relationships is not a sign of whether or not I am a good enough person, it is a gift from God because He wants to touch that person or use that person to touch me. It was a really good reminder and also reminds me that I don't need to carry that pressure. I just need to give it all to God and let Him work through the situations and truly give Him control.
"The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray. Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen." ~1Peter 4:7-11
