Awkward moment Quote by Jennifer Johnson
““REJECTION SUCKS: So, BUILD a relationship with Christ, which will take precedence in your life, leaving no room for the unwarranted fear of rejection. Put God’s Word in your mouth and begin to declare -- “I have favor with God and with man.” When you walk into a room, allow the poise and confidence by which you comport yourself to engage others in such a way that they are comfortable in your presence. You being comfortable with yourself makes others feel comfortable around you. AN AWKWARD MOMENT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE AN AWFUL MOMENT -- when you silence the voice of rejection.””
