getting up again

I have to stand up again. I have to check my motives and heart every step of the way to make sure I'm not seeking the approval of man, only trying to please the heart of God in using my gifts, talents and passions to do what I feel called to do. Who cares what anyone else thinks, my God has called me to such a time as this, and I won't apologize for who I am or what I have to do. Guard my heart Lord, help me build some walls around it so I don't become injured again or led astray. But walls not so tall or thick that my love and passion don't shine through.
