Often the Lord will ask you to do something that makes little sense in the natural. Years ago, He birthed a ministry that had some elements others didn't seem to agree with. They seemed silly to them. I had to stand firm in what He called me to do and how He called me to do it. At times, I was criticized for my methods, yet Jesus saved people and grew them in His grace. The fruit bore witness that it was surely Him.
You'll have to be okay swimming upstream sometimes. You'll have to also learn to nod kindly to critics while moving on with Jesus.
Decide now...that you are willing to be that crazy one pursuing Christ and all He has for you.
