There is no better feeling than finding those jeans that fit perfect. For some it is slim fit, but for me it is low-rise bootcut (I can only fit one leg in slim fit). After a long day of shopping you slip them on and know they are the jeans for you.

In the past month, I have been approached by three people (two actually used the word offended) about various things. The first was my clothes. So I cleaned up a bit. The second was my Mexican flag guitar strap. Im not attached to it, so I changed it out. The third was that I have earrings. I’m not sure how to handle this one. The other stuff was not a big deal, but I am beginning to wonder if I am trying to fit my low-rise bootcut body in some slim fit jeans.

Please, hear my heart, I do not want to offend anybody (that’s why I changed straps and stuff). But knowing that God wired me this way, it is hard for me to think that I have to completely change who I am to “earn” enough respect to function in the giftings that God put in me.

Just like finding the perfect jeans takes time, so does finding your fit without changing who you are.

Has anyone had an experience like this?
