## About This Episode

Have you ever felt nervous to post what God is putting on your heart because the criticism might be loud?

In this episode of Perspectives Into Practice, my friend Kelsey and I get honest about uncomfortable obedience: the tension between your flesh wanting to stay quiet and the Holy Spirit prompting you to obey. Kelsey shares what helps her persevere through depression, spiritual attack, and the pressure of being watched, and how caring for your temple can be an act of worship instead of an idol. We end with a hope-filled reminder for anyone who feels the pressure of being seen.

In this conversation:

-   How to discern conviction from people-pleasing
-   How to respond with grace when comments turn harsh
-   Why your obedience is often not just for you, because God uses it to reach someone else

If this conversation encouraged you, share it with a friend who needs it, or reach out at [https://perspectivesintopractice.com/contact](https://perspectivesintopractice.com/contact). I would love to hear from you.
