Living Life On Mission ಮಾದರಿ

Be a breath of fresh air

Here at yesHEis, we know a guy, his name is Dan. He makes us smile. He has this exuberance about him that is rare to find. He always seems to have a smile on his face, and he embraces life and enjoys the everyday moments that it brings. He keeps his eyes open and looks for opportunities to share his faith in all sorts of unique ways. Now, like everyone, Dan would have his down days, but even in the midst of downers, Dan is up. He’s real, he wears his heart on his sleeve, and he keeps smiling through it all.

Dan has this way about him that causes you to go through what we would call ‘the uncomfortable zone’. There’s this boldness about him that’s contagious because it comes with this authenticity that’s uniquely him — he doesn’t try to be anyone else. He can do the most awkward things and get away with it, and in being naturally him, he draws out people in the room, allowing them to take a deep breath of fresh air. He has this ability to make a ‘stagnant’ room erupt into laughter and leave you talking about him for days.

Now we aren’t all "Dan’s", but it’s important to remember; God has gifted you uniquely with talents and character to bring freshness and life into a room, rather than leaving people with a bad smell.

We’re not suggesting that you should try to achieve getting everyone to like you. If everyone likes you, you’re probably not living to the standard God is asking of you. Can you ask yourself a question? Are you socially aware of your environment and are you thriving in it?

In displaying the fullness of what God has naturally given you, you will cause people to take stock of their own lives, and perhaps to start asking you where your joy and life comes from. You will raise a God standard and people will take notice.
