As Christians we don't live to draw attention to ourselves or to appear unique or crazy or "special" to the world or even to parts of the "church." We live to edify Christ. That's it! That's our goal! That's our purpose! It's all about Him!
And if we do that, if He truly IS our passion, then by HIS uniqueness living through us we WILL draw attention and appear unique or crazy or even get us labeled as attention-getting people who think we are "special." Yet, in this form of living ANY kind of "special" is ALL GOD and no self! The world just can't see it. Because they don't yet know it (true intimacy with Christ).
In spite of the critics our focus must remain - Christ alone be edified, through us!
