God Sees You

Have you ever done something great—something you’re proud of—but no one noticed?

It’s crazy how much more real things feel when they’re seen and admired by others. As humans, we naturally crave attention, approval, and validation. We want to be seen.

But when it comes to following Jesus, that craving can easily become a trap.

At Motion Conference, God moved in your life. You felt the call. Like Isaiah, you said, “Here I am. Send me.”

But now, you’re back in the routine. School. Friends. Pressure. And one of the biggest barriers to walking out your calling? Worrying what other people will think.

Fear of rejection. Desire for applause. Doing the right things—but for the wrong reasons.

There’s nothing wrong with encouragement from leaders, friends, or family. It’s a gift. But it can’t be your foundation.

Paul understood this. After his encounter with Jesus, he didn’t run to the other apostles for approval. He didn’t post about it or look for validation. He withdrew. He spent time with God.

Why? Because he wanted God to confirm his calling—not people.

He didn’t reject community, but he didn’t depend on it for identity.

If we live for people’s acceptance, we’ll be crushed by their rejection.

Your faith has to be personal before it can be public.
Your identity has to be rooted in Christ—not in other people’s opinions.

God saw what happened at Motion. He sees your heart today. That’s all the validation you need.

Practical Step: Set a daily alarm for 15 minutes. Put your phone across the room and spend 5 minutes praying, 5 minutes worshiping, and 5 minutes in Scripture. Start your day with God before you step into the world
