Stop Caring, Start Living

Stop caring what other people think of you.
They don’t know you, 
They are not you. 
Their opinions are irrelevant to the person you are becoming.
The only opinion that matters is God’s. 
After you die what people thought of you will not follow you, 
What God thinks of you is the ultimate question. 
Will he be proud of the way you lived?
The way you treated people?
The way you handled situations?
The words that came out of your mouth?
Live like Jesus, Love like Jesus, 
What can people say if you do?
When you stop caring what others think of you, 
You start living.
