Matthew 11:16-19

For John came, neither eating nor drinking, and they say, “He is possessed.” The Son of Man came, eating and drinking, and they say, “Look, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.” Yet wisdom has been proved right by her actions.’

Here is a word for the wise. When you get your mission from God, do it your way. Jesus found out quickly that no matter what he did, someone was mad at him. This may be easy work for strong willed people but for the few like me in the world who are people pleasers it is torture. However it is part of growing up. Someone will be disappointed even with what you name your dog. So have your mission clear and do it for God. The do nothings who criticize will eventually be quiet as they see you press on. Well they did not for Jesus but for you and I in our world today, our resolve does silence them. Jesus was his own man and that took a ton of courage and ton of loneliness but also a ton of freedom and happiness. You do you pappy!!
